    Check all of the following that would constitute a conflict of interest

    • Hiring an unqualified relative to provide necessary services for the company

    • Failing to disclose that you’re related to a job candidate the company is considering hiring

    • Making a purchase or business choice to boost a business that you have a stake in

    • Promoting the company or organization by inviting friends and colleagues to fundraisers

    • Starting a company that provides services similar to your full time employer.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Hiring an unqualified relative to provide necessary services for the company
    A. Failing to disclose that you’re related to a job candidate the company is considering hiring
    A. Making a purchase or business choice to boost a business that you have a stake in
    A. Starting a company that provides services similar to your full time employer.
    Explanation
    The answer is correct because all of the listed actions would constitute a conflict of interest. Hiring an unqualified relative to provide necessary services for the company is a conflict because it prioritizes personal relationships over the company's best interests. Failing to disclose a relationship with a job candidate being considered for hiring can lead to biased decision-making. Making a purchase or business choice to benefit a business that you have a stake in is a clear conflict of interest as it undermines fair competition. Starting a company that provides similar services to your full-time employer can create a conflict by competing with your employer.
