Explanation:

As Scenario C: Tidewater, Inc., requires its job applicants to take a test that measures their vocabulary and numerical skills. For specific jobs, the company also requires its applicants to perform a sample of the job. Before implementing the tests, the management analyzes how well the test actually correlates and predicts job performance. When Tidewater needed to downsize, the company helped employees who were laid off to get placed in other organizations, and immediate supervisors talked to the employees about the reasons for their dismissal.

The company helped employees get placed in other organizations after being laid off. This is an example of outplacement in which support services are being given to the employees of an organization in order to get them new jobs. Proper consultation is also provided by some organizations for this particular purpose in order to facilitate their employees in successful transition to new jobs. It is done with the help of professional advice, counselling, training and workshops, where topics might include career guidance, job searching skills, resume writing skills, interviews preparation skills and negotiations skills.
