Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected. Standard Text: Select all that apply. 1. "HR makes all the final hiring decisions. I just suggest the candidate I would like to have to fill the job."
2. "HR will screen the applicants for us so we don't waste time interviewing people who are not qualified."
3. "HR makes certain that we are not doing anything illegal as we interview for this position."
4. "We can't hire a nurse until HR has done a criminal background check."
5. "HR has to check to be certain that the applicant has a valid license before we can offer the job."
