Case 1 (20 points): An applicant for a position of a coal-shovellerwent through a number of selection tests: biodata, phone interview, work sample test, and cognitive ability test. This applicant was rejected over a more qualified one who obtained a higher score for the cognitive ability test (with all other scores being equal). The applicant sued the company. Did he have a chance to win the case? Please explain. USE TEXTBOOK CASCIO-MANAGING HUMAN RESOURCES 9TH EDITION, CITE WITH PAGE NUMBERS WEAR INFO WAS FOUND IF POSSIBLE.

Yes. The rejected applicant has chance to win the case. The interview process should include tests that are relevant to the job performance. The cognitive ability test involves measuring the individual’s reasoning, memory, verbal and mathematical abilities which do not have any relation with the job performance of a coal shoveller and the test should be conducted to check the physical abilities of the applicant. As the selection stage in which the applicant failed is not related to the job, the court may order in favor of the applicant.
