Question

Patrick just completed the performance appraisals of three new statisticians. On the company’s 4-point grading scale, the average score for the three statisticians was 3.0. The average of all statisticians in the organization was 3.5. The new recruits’ ______ was 14% below average.

a. new hire performance
b. cost per hire
c. time required to hire
d. new hire turnover

Answer 1

New hire performance ( A )

Explanation:

The new recruits been subjected to the performance appraisals on a 4 point grading scale is to rate/grade the performance of the new recruits in comparison to the performance of the older staffs of the company.

hence the results of this kind of appraisal will definitely be to check the New hire performance of the new recruits. the new recruits having an average score of 3.0 means that they are 14% lower than the Average score of the three statisticians who scored 3.5.

while the cost per hire is a measure of the cost of hiring a new recruit by a company. and the time required to hire is the time taken to recruit a new staff.

Answer 2

Option A is correct.

The new recruits' new hire performance was 14% below average.

Explanation:

Breaking down the options one at a time.

New hire performance is a performance appraisal of new recruits of a firm by the HR. And from this question, the average performance score obtained (3.0) by the new hires is truly 14% lower than the 3.5 normal average score of statisticians already in that firm. This is evidently the answer to this question.

Cost per hire is the average amount spent per hire in a firm. It includes training costs, travel costs, administrative costs etc. This isn't evidently the answer to the question.

Time required to hire is the time taken to complete the hiring process of a new employee. This is obviously not also the answer to this question.

New hires turnover is the proportion of new hires that leave the firm within the first year of working with the firm. Also obviously distinct from what the question.is describing.

So, new hire performance is the most appropriate answer of all the answer choices.

Hope this Helps!!!
