Answer to Question 1

2,5
Rationale 1: Encouraging or discouraging union membership by a manager is an unfair labor practice.
Rationale 2: Interference with the right to organize is an unfair labor practice.
Rationale 3: Any act of domination or indication of preference regarding the union is an unfair labor practice.
Rationale 4: Refusal to bargain collectively is an unfair labor practice.
Rationale 5: The managers must be kept apprised of the process.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

3, 4
Explanation: 1. Questions should be focused on the candidate, not the person conducting the interview.
Leading questions imply a specific answer. Whether or not a candidate has cared for a client on
