A candidate is given three work strategies for handling a high-volume task:
Strategy A: Complete 80% of the task flawlessly, with 20% remaining incomplete.
Strategy B: Complete 100% of the task but with some minor errors.
Strategy C: Complete only 50% of the task but with perfect accuracy.
Question:
If the performance evaluation prioritizes complete task coverage over minor mistakes, which strategy should be chosen?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Strategy B.
Strategy A: Only 80% of the work is completed (i.e., there is no complete coverage).
Strategy B: 100% of the work is completed, even if there are some minor errors (mistakes). Since our priority is complete work coverage, this is the best fit.
Strategy C: Only 50% of the work is completed.
