At your high school's annual career fair, you learn that many employers use personality tests to determine whom they should hire. Write an
argumentative essay for your school newspaper in which you support a
claim about whether or not personality tests should be used as part of the
hiring process. Use the information from the texts in your essay.
Manage your time carefully so that you can
• read the passages;
• plan your response;
• write your response; and
• revise and edit your response.
Be sure to
• include a claim;
• address counterclaims;
• use evidence from multiple sources; and
• avoid overly relying on one source.
Your response should be in the form of a multiparagraph essay. Write your
response in the space provided.
