Question : Assertion: Internal sources of recruitment are limited in scope.
Reason: Internal sources of recruitment provide opportunities for employee growth.
Option 1: Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion.
Option 2: Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.
Option 3: The assertion is true, but the reason is false.
Option 4: The assertion is false, but the reason is true.
Correct Answer:
Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.
Solution : The correct answer is (b) Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.
The assertion, "Internal sources of recruitment are limited in scope," might be true if it refers to the potential limitation in terms of diversity of perspectives and new skill sets that external sources may bring. However, the reason provided, "Internal sources of recruitment provide opportunities for employee growth," does not directly explain why internal sources would be limited in scope. In fact, internal sources can contribute to employee growth by offering career advancement opportunities within the organization. Therefore, while both the assertion and reason are true, the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.
