As the Human Resources Department Head, you are putting together a listing of names to submit to the County Board President for her approval. There are 10 names on the list and 5 additional names as backups if during the final vetting process someone does not make the cut. You are sure that your top ten names will be chosen because they handled themselves the best in the interview phase and passed all of your tests.
When you get the list back from the Board President so you can call the individuals and offer them the positions, you find that three of your top ten names were swapped out for individuals on the back up list and there are now two additional names that were not on either of your lists and you are unaware of their capabilities to perform the job but have the same last names as local politicians.
How do you handle this situation? Do you simply accept the names that you were given, or do you fight to hire the best candidates for the job? What are the steps that you will take for these individuals who were not on your first or second choice lists but are on the list to be hired?
