SELECTING A NEW COMPUTER ANALYST
As a manager in human resources, part of my job is to guide the process by which my company selects new
employees. Recently, we selected an applicant to fill a computer analyst position. The supervising manager and a
selection panel selected this applicant over a number of others based on her superior qualifications and interview.
BACKGROUND CHECK
However, a routine background check indicated that the applicant had been convicted 18 years earlier for false
check writing. The application form has a section where the applicant is asked if he or she has ever been convicted
of anything other than a traffic violation. In response to that question, this applicant wrote “no.” When informed
of this, the supervising manager stated that she would still like to hire the applicant but asked me for my
recommendation. The job does not involve money handling.
