Instructions

The HR department is trying to fill a vacant position for a job with a small talent pool. Valid applications arrive every week or so, and the applicants all seem to bring different levels of expertise.

For your discussion post, address the following within the context of the scenario:

• What are the Type I and Type II decision errors costs?
• Which decision error is more likely to be discovered by the CEO?
• How does this affect the HR manager's hiring decisions?
