Verbal Reasoning - Logical Sequence of Words - Discussion

Option A is my preferred answer.

5. Advertisement (The company outs up a job vacancy).
6. Application ( Job seekers apply).
3. Selection ( Here sorting of all the applications received and selecting based on qualifications, certifications etc. Of course, not all who applied for a job get called for interview).
2. Interview (Successful applicants are called for interview).
4. Appointment (Those successful at the interview stage are given appointment).
1. Probation (The new employees are carefully observed for any character traits that do not conform to the company's mode of operation for some period of time).

A. 5. 6. 3. 2 4. 1

5. Advertisement (The company outs up a job vacancy).

6. Application (Job seekers apply).

2. Interview (job seekers are called for interview).

3. Selection (Here sorting of all the applications received and selecting based on the interview).

4. Appointment (Those successful at the selection stage are given appointment).

1. Probation (The new employees are carefully observed for any character traits that do not conform to the company's mode of operation for some period of time).

This is a slight correction to Cornel's answer. This is the correct answer.

The answer is correct and an appointment doesn't only mean booking a time slot. Appointment here refers to assigning the job or position to someone after they are selected hence the order 5 6 2 3 4 1.

Meaning first see ad then people apply and are further called in for interview then desired candidates are selected and appointed for the suitable available position and kept on probation period to assess someone whether they are actually a good fit for the company or not.

Yes, first we can see the advertisement through newspaper or some other way. Then we will the send application through post or online, then they are called for interview.

Then they are check our quality like probation, then they are selected and finally they are appointed me on the selected post.

So,

Advertisement, Application, Interview, probation, Selection, Appointment.

The correct way of arranging these words in the context of a typical hiring process is:

1. Advertisement
2. Application
3. Interview
4. Selection
5. Appointment
6. Probation

This sequence represents the steps from job posting to the final stage of probation after being hired.

Why can't the above answer be 5, 6, 4, 2, 3, 1.

* By looking at the Advertisement, we are filling the Application form.
* Then we will get Appointment for our Interview.
* Then after Selection we will be in Probation Period.

Yes, I got your point of view logically if you consider phone interview way of selection then the given answer is correct.

Advertisement, Application, Interview, Selection, Appointment and Probation.

5 6 2 3 4 1.

First we see advertisement.
Then fill up application form.

Then we get appointment (call letter).
Then come for interview.

After selection and.
Last Stage for probation (training).

Here appointment refers to the appointment of job I think, that is why appointment here comes after selection process. Therefore, the series is 5, 6, 2, 3, 4, 1.

I think the answer is wrong. It's after selection before the interview. Selection maybe aptitude test if you pass you proceed for an interview.
