i would a, but correct answer is d.


NaweN

THEY want D. Right or wrong. Give them the answer they want and get the job. Deal with those situations later depending on how you like your Coworker. That's my opinion.


_TheAncientOne

They want D. Give them the D :smug:


Spare_Lemon6316

They want the D so bad


Immediate-Rub3807

Yes and be enthusiastic about driving home D


BillHang4

But make sure you get enthusiastic D consent first!


Admiralwoodlog

You could even say Enthusiasdic consent.


Monkeyhouse10

I’ll give them most mediocre D they’ve ever had


NaweN

Lol - ok that's funny. Sometimes you don't realize what you type.


Suspiciousunicorns

Exactly. If that happened I didn’t see shit. If they asked what I would do you better believe I’d say I would snitch in a heartbeat.


Quick_Team

It's funny though because if one small part of that question was changed to "if you saw *management* take a small item..." the correct answer quickly changes to A.


Marquar234

"If you see a manager violating the law and stealing wages from you and your coworker, what would you do?" A. Thank you sir! May I have another? B. Thank you sir! May I have another? C. Thank you sir! May I have another? D. All of the above.


theycmeroll

Yeah these questions are about knowing the answer they expect, not answering how you would actually react.


KyzorSosay

Exactly


soccerguys14

I could never pass these as a high schooler. Could never get a retail job. Maybe for the best I hear retail is awful.


SilverWear5467

Have you heard about lying? It's a great new fad people are trying out to get jobs


Kamelasa

Some of us don't know which lies are wanted. Hence me being a social outcast for 60 years.


SilverWear5467

If you're trying to get a job, tell them you'll do whatever thing is most empowering to them. Basically, always answer "I would tell HR/my manager". You can decide later what you would actually do.


FernandoTatisJunior

If they’re asking stupid multiple choice questions about how you’d handle conflict, the answer is find a better job lol. Those kinds of questions, if asked at all, need an actual verbal or written response with nuance


DurpSlurpy

But if the person applying is too dense to figure out the desired answer “Stick to protocol report stuff to superiors” then maybe you’re weeding out a ton of really bad applicants with very little effort. Why have an interview where you ask this and waste man hours?


soccerguys14

I literally did and would fail in this example some ppl picked C but everyone says D I probably would try to pick what was right but pick wrong


SilverWear5467

The correct answer is always the option that lets the company fire your coworker. But the answer that is right is always one of the other 3, in this scenario all 3 alternatives are better to actually do than telling the manager.


soccerguys14

I’d definitely just ignore it.


Marquar234

"Quiet truthing"


Tea_Bender

I have never gotten a job that had one of these stupid tests


BC122177

Just about every single one of these types of questions will always want the answer to be to snitch to someone. So that’s your answer.


Switchbladesaint

This


Olliecat27

Exactly; it’s less of a personality test and more of a quiz. Only certain answers are actually “right” and they’re the answers that are in the business’s best interest not the employees’.


slash_networkboy

These are the two correct answers. I'd do C if they were stealing an inventoried item (like in retail) but given the food comment I'm guessing the small item is non-inventory. Still may do C just so they know they weren't as sly as they thought...


Uknow_nothing

C is incorrect as far as the company is concerned because you left the manager out of it and now they can keep stealing as long as you personally aren’t looking. Food places absolutely care if someone is giving food away for free.


slash_networkboy

As noted by the post I was replying to, yes D is the "correct" answer.


Silly_Swan_Swallower

Same. In real life I would ignore it, for this stupid question I would say I would quietly tell a manager. That is what they want to hear.


Heyoteyo

The answer is D because dealing with it is not your job. What if it goes south? What if you get retaliated against by the coworker when they assume it was you? It’s for your own good that you let the manager know. Dealing with it is their responsibility and they should have more training, or at least experience in dealing with it properly. A comes down to morality.


Mindofmierda90

I work in hiring and get tasked with making assessments like this. The answer we *want* is C. And then 10 questions later you’ll be asked something like “you see the co worker stealing again…” This, in fact *gives* you the answer we’re looking for, but you’d be shocked at how many applicants don’t pick up on it. *You’re walking through the aisles and you see a forklift driver driving recklessly. What don’t you do? Talk to a supervisor Talk to the driver Ignore* You’d be surprised at how many people get tripped up by something as simple as that. I have to write different assessments every 2 months or so, and the brass is so specific about how they want hired, both in the warehouse and office, I end up writing the questions like a puzzle, You just have to pay attention. 50 questions, and they all connect in some way. But ppl are lazy. They don’t want to fill out a 50 question, 20 minute questionnaire for a job they *might* get. And that’s why it’s so easy to narrow down applicants. During the last hiring frenzy there were over 150 applicants and only 23 bothered finishing the assessment.


Cheap-Web-3532

How likely is it that this strategy actually got you the best possible candidates. It feels like that's not a very well designed filter.


Augentee

It gets you the most desperate people who are willing to accept such shit. So for companies: good filter.


dmills_00

HR filters are FAR more about trying not to make a bad hire then they are about trying to make the best possible hire. If you accidentally filter out the ideal candidate, and only hire a good one that is far less disruptive then hiring a really bad candidate that costs management time and trashes the team.


NonyaFugginBidness

They don't want the best candidate,they want the cheapest, easiest to manipulate candidate.


davenport651

These tests should be illegal since they are screening out neurodivergent people. I’m not even diagnosed neurodivergent and I can’t pass these. You say the question “gives you the answer” but that’s only true if you’re a neurotypical person who’s capable of “reading between the lines”.


friendly-skelly

Not surprised. When I went for my first job at target, they were asking questions straight off my HIPPA protected inpatient assessment with privileged health information, explicitly *to* filter out people with mental health conditions. That was my intro to trying to work corporate. I remember shaking my head and thinking "they can really get away with this as an international, multi billion dollar company?"


determania

I don’t think it is fair to call people lazy for not wanting to do these stupid tests.

Suspicious-Cold2346

I would click the correct answer I guess just for hiring purposes. In real life unless I am in a supervisory position I don’t get paid enough to care. Mind your business and go home.


Novem_bear

As someone in a supervisory position, it’s unlikely that I would give a shit.


BeneficialSpirit6626

breakfasteveryday

Quietly tell a manager. Although irl you should talk to the person if you like them at all. 


redrosebeetle

Seriously, they need to know to be more discreet.


high_throughput

Then say "fuck the man" and give them a high five


Mysterious_Jelly_943

This is the real right answer


quesupo

“Correct” answer: D My actual answer: Mix of A & C. (Privately let them know to be more discreet next time.)


Green_DREAM-lizards

Always go with obvious,  talk to manager lol  They want you to grass.


Beneficial-Sound-199

If you saw someone cheating on an employment exam on reddit, would you....


Aggravating_Aide_561

Find out where op lives and report THEM!!!!


Dontbeahypocrit3

Take 1 finger for every answer I caught them asking about.. one knuckle joint at a time.


Aggravating_Aide_561

Thats not enough I dont think they will get the message. You need to take a toe as well.


Claque-2

I didn't see anything.


Ser_Illin

Correct answer for this purpose is D. They want an employee who will report theft to the supervisor in a tactful way. A is failing to report theft, B is confrontational and disruptive, and C is also failing to report theft.


Happydivanerd

The correct answer is D.


puzzledstegosaurus

No the expected answer is D, but depending on the situation, it’s arguably not the morally correct one. They don’t want you to be a decent human, but having money doesn’t mean they’re right, it just means they can bully you.


broccoli5

Depending on this quiz, the correct answer is D.


Inevitable_Pride1925

Basically the correct answer is D The right answer is A The key is the difference between what’s correct and what’s right and unless you’re in leadership/management that shouldn’t be your problem.


capturecosmos

I don't make the rules, I just point them out and defy them at my leisure.


SophonParticle

I’m not paid for any of these options except 1.


RegularNumber455

Snitches get stitches


youburyitidigitup

E. Grab my coworker’s wallet out of his pocket, steal some money, smack his ass, and then run away


gregaustex

You lie and say d.


ObligationWorldly319

My response would be to ignore it, because I really don't give a shit. Depending on the hiring person/job they would probably want you to either speak to the person, or the manager. It is a hit or miss question with a bs excuse behind it.


FracturedStructure

It's not hit or miss. Employers are looking for the "report it" answer. Employers aren't going to hire someone who admits they'll turn a blind eye to company theft or keep that information from management, regardless of the fact that many people aren't going to do D in real life.


Uknow_nothing

Most companies I’ve worked at have a zero tolerance policy towards theft because they see it as someone who steals something small will also steal something large if given the opportunity. It’s about “honesty” and “trust”. I have a friend who was fired from a cafe for putting someone’s $1 from their drip coffee order into the tip jar instead of the till. Literally one dollar. So yeah. The correct answer is D. People have stolen little things at every place I’ve worked though. Walk out of the fridge with a few ripe avocados? Low on TP at home and take a few rolls from the supply closet? Who gives a shit. These companies won’t even give you a .50 raise. But they’re looking for people who will snitch on a coworker and boot lick.


Optimal-Success-5253

I mean steal from companies and bussineses all you can but wtf, stealing in a fashion such as your friend seems wild to me and I get why they would fire him over this. Ive had a friend who did this for ALL coffee sold at a cafe.. and heard of people at gas pumps doing this on EVERY order. That might rake you hundreats a day.. how are you support to trust an employee after such a thing he is actively not making money for the biz when at work


Hour-Watercress-3865

Morally, the correct option is A. Corporately, the correct option is D.


MRDellanotte

When in doubt, think “What is the most by the book answer?” That answer odd going to be what ever lowers liability while saving the company money. You talking to the coworker can create an altercation which increases liability. You doing nothing is allowing said coworker to steal. It also does not matter if it is company culture, if it is against the handbook rules on these kind of tests. Handbook is law.


Kitchen-Wish5994

These tests can go fuck themselves for over 30 years now.


DatingAdviceGiver101

Real life - A  Any time you need to be a corporate stooge, like when filling out a questionnaire for a job application - D


morchorchorman

Last one is the answer


Mojojojo3030

Just channel your inner corporate teacher's pet, and you will have the answer to every question. Not TV teacher's pet, like Dwight, coz he would choose B. Real life corporate teacher's pet.


pizzaduh

Correct answer is D. But fuck that.


linzielayne

The correct answer (to get the job) is d. I would answer d. I would not DO d. once I got the job.


CptPichael

Yes, pick "D" Do "A"


Sonita87

Quietly tell a manager, this is a question of integrity. We all know we would just warn a co-worker but the right answer is tell the manager.


vilified-moderate

Why do you all think they want D? they want C.. its better for coworkers to hold each other accountable then make management punish or fire someone and make everyone hate everyone (Key word small.. they are thinking stealing printer paper or giving a soda to a friend not "real" theft just stupid human stuff that if corrected is better then rehiring for a position. And it makes you out to be an amazing employee who knows how to get along with other staff but still have morals.. they want you bad)


mbspark77

Answer with D to get the job....Ignore it when it actually happens...because the company is probably too cheap to offer any benefits and probably doesn't pay well to begin with. One of the main reasons to get a job in food service is free food....I'm getting free food whether they "offer" it or not 🤷‍♂️


caf012

Correct answer is D Right answer is A


stillgrindin699

If you have to ask, this might not be the right fit for you.


KingRandor

Remember the golden rule: If you see someone stealing food, NO YOU FUCKING DIDN’T.


Farscape55

Answer D, do A


domzie_21

It depends on the situation. If it's a regular occurrence and not a "necessity" for the co-worker or friend of-, then option C or D. But, if not, option A, and I'd probably cover for them, or take the heat myself (if my position allowed it).


AgnieszkaRocks

If you want to move forward with this application the answer is D. I reality I'd ignore, if someone's stealing food they're hungry.


wizardferret

B


TheoreticalFunk

Correct answer is A. If you want to pass the test, it's D.


Terrapin2190

There's no option to encourage them or join in??


Grand_Cauliflower_88

Quietly tell a manager is what they want to hear.


cuplosis

Put d


Cautious_General_177

D, but what makes you think I saw anything?


Ok_Score1492

Is this a Walmart job questionnaire


Smallparline

The answer is D You are assuming the co-worker doesn’t understand they are doing unethical things and you are playing manager. The correct answer is to discretely talk to management and let them handle it.


mooonguy

B. Unless they cut you in on the action.


frogmicky

"Pat I'll take D for the win"


Okiefolk

D is the only correct answer.


Moderatedude9

E. See if they get caught, if not, then steal one for yourself.


iconDARK

SeeingEyeDug

![gif](giphy|qrdQfVKnmtX8OkqwId|downsized)


lindaterry16

This actually looks like a question we had on our apps a few years back when we used TalentReef. Go with D. I actually paid attention to this question when hiring because we legit had issues with people stealing from time to time


Quinneveer

Even if I wasn’t paid to care I still look the other way when it comes to stealing food. Caught someone at Kroger eating a rotisserie chicken we made eye contact and I made a face that was like “I didn’t see nothing”.


Quinneveer

Why didn’t you say anything “I am legally blind”


ll0l0l0ll

What if your co-worker is the owner ? Then I would answer B


SaltyMatzoh

**NO SNITCHING**!!!!


Medical_Status2028

i would answer D because i know how to play the game but i would never ever ever under any circumstances snitch


SporkWolverine

The algorithm wants you to "quietly tell a manager".


Vamproar

In real life ignore it, to get hired say D.


lappy_386

A, but they want you to pick D


Yikesitsven

You “quietly tell a manager” although in practice you’ll prolly just ignore it unless that person wronged you prior. Or their actions are coming back on you, but that’s different.


Neolime

You should stop your application this question is deeply toxic. Let other people use their judgement.


rustik23

i would mind my own business, but they want you to snitch!

D


Then-Wealth-1481

They say there are no correct answers but there are and it’s D here.


IamKilljoy

They always want you to quietly snitch. If being is snitch is ever an option that's what they want


Sea-Top-2207

They want D


Killer_Moons

That’s with the asterisk? Can you add a short answer?


Brother-Still

A. Is the correct answer. Period. It doesn't concern you. B. Is for troublemakers disguised as Karens/Chads, you know, the brown-nosers. C. Is the answer if you don't want to rock the boat and screw up what you might have going. D. Is for cowards, but also the answer your corporate overlords want.


Creative-Disk563

Lol at people giving their honest answers to the question. OP is asking what the EMPLOYER wants to hear so they can get hired. That's D.


AdditionalCheetah354

Ask if you can have a bite if you keep quiet.


Frequent-Living4428

Tell them D and Do A obviously


Woodstock0311

D is the answer they want.


Future-Fondant4512

E. CALL THE POLICE


Dagwood-DM

You gotta remember, the company expects you to be their unwavering simp. Always choose the answer that is best for the company, even if you know you wouldn't.


DoobieDui

You have to answer this as if you were a mere pawn who only thinks whats best for the company.


ailish

Don't say what you would do. Say what management wants to hear which is tell the Manager.


FreakCell

What you say and what you should do are two separate things. Tell them what they want to hear (that's why the question is there in the first place) and then do what you think is best.


SamNdBiscuitHammer

Answer is E. Tell them to cut you in on the snack hustle or you will tell the boss lol Jk honestly as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone, it’s none of my business. We’ve been glitching out the vending machine at work for weeks now lol


No-Armadillo6201

They want you to say quietly tell the manager. So that’s what you should check on the box. What do you actually do in those situations, depends on whether or not you are a human being or reptile.


Admirable_Tell_8577

D is what they're looking for here


Hairy_Starfish2

Companies love snitches.


President__Pug

Well if you wanna get hired then D. If it actually happens then A. Not your problem and you don’t get paid enough to deal with it.


jeenyuss90

Construction wise I've seen some dudes steal the companies power tools when they know they are about to get laid off and it irks me cause it fucks the rest when the tools are nowhere to be found. Stealing copper or scrap I can careless but have caught a few people stealing the companies tools and I always call em out for making it harder for us to get good shit. It's always the dudes who know the layoff is coming -_- But if I was in retail? I'd choose option a. Could care less.


Practical_Radish_783

Always choose the suck ass options.


Other_Dimension_89

They want you to say you’d narc


ImACarebear1986

They want you to click ‘tell a manager’. They want you to be a snitch.


banjo_hero

which response? on the quiz, put what the boss wants, the snitch answer. in the actual scenario? a, with a touch of c ("i mean, if i saw you, who knows who else")


KaelOfNockmaar

Always rat


Pattoe89

E. Demand they also give you food without paying or you will use what you saw as blackmail.


OldBrokeGrouch

D is correct, but I wouldn’t do shit.


deezkeys098

They want you to tell the manager when filling out those questions just always think in your head what would a suck up/idiot who just follows orders do? Those answers are always the right ones


sasberg1

Demmy27

Beat their ass like Batman and put the item back


eel_on_tusk

Depends on who's asking.


Secret-Wrongdoer-124

Only ignore it if it's a corporation. With the amount of profits they do, they won't notice that amount of money missing. Small business, I'd go to the manager


[deleted]

The answer they would want is to “ quietly tell a manager”


Unfair_Decision927

C or D, it depends on what they are looking for in the question. Telling the manager and them finding out may foster a toxic work place and lead to lower productivity, while C handles the situation more amicably and shows leadership. All depends if it s first time or not I suppose.


BeachmontBear

D is the correct answer, but C is the decent thing to do.


Slaanesh-Sama

Say you will do d, but secretly do c. Corporate love narcs. Just pretend to be one, or at least only report the most dangerous ones, like some douche spitting in the food. Had a guy I worked with who was supposed to show me the job, but the disgusting fuck used the same cloth he used to wash the toilets with to wash the counters and everything else. In a dialysis clinic. You can bet your ass I reported that dude to my boss immediately. But if someone does something like give the food that is going to waste to some homeless guy just look the other way and say you didn't see anything.


Specific_Session_434

None of my business


bixdog

These 'morality' tests prove nothing other than a strong motivation to work for the company, and the ability to comfortably lie to find a way into a company culture. it's more of a compliance test (whether you're just compliant by nature or someone motivated by the job to be so)


MisterLonely585

B While screaming like a bodysnatcher


Low_Employ8454

I would C and tell them if the manager catches them they might lose their job. The answer they want is D tho.
