question 45

Multiple Choice

After graduating from college with a bachelor's degree in business administration, Emily, sent an email, with a resume attached, to the Encyclopedic Marketing Company. In the email she expressed an interest in being considered for an entry level position in Encyclopedic's management training program. When she found out that Encyclopedic had hired two of her classmates who were not of her race, Emily filed a complaint of discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.

• A) Emily has a good case against Encyclopedic because her email told them that she was interested in a management trainee position and they didn't even consider her.
• B) If Emily really wants to be a management trainee she should go back to school and get an MBA.
• C) Emily will not prevail on her complaint because sending an e-mail inquiry about a job does not qualify the sender as an applicant.
• D) Emily would have had a case against Encyclopedic if she had submitted her resume via an online job board.
