Nellie has graduated from college but is unemployed since the job market for recent graduates is

weak in the midst of the Covid pandemic's economic impact. Nellie attempted to locate job using
online resources (e.g., topcv.vn or timviecnhanh.com), and she eventually chose to apply for an
open position at ABC Company.This job is a contract for Nellie's major; she believes she has the
qualifications for the position, but she isn't sure whether she is interested. Nellie received a call
from ABC after a few days and went in for an interview. As a consequence, the ABC corporation
employed her.

Should Nellie take that job? Should she keep seeking for another job if she does?

In order to provide Nellie advise, we will use the ethical decision-making framework to think
through the scenario.

1. Identify the facts

Nellie has been given a position that demands skills that are unrelated to her subject of
study. Nellie, ABC Company, Nellie's new boss, Nellie's team members, Nellie's family
and friends, and Nellie's creditors are the stakeholders.

2. Define the issue

Nellie must decide whether or not to accept the position. Should Nellie keep looking for
other employment if she decides to take the job?

3. Ideality the principles that can be applied

Nellie may use a consequentialist theory like utilitarianism to argue that he should think
about the repercussions of his decision carefully. Alternatively, she might work through
her problem using a deontological theory, such as Kant's theory, by assessing whether
choosing the job is acting with good intention and obeying the norms.

4. Identify possible actions and the stakeholders affected by these actions.

(a) Nellie may accept the position and cease her employment search. (Nellie, ABC Company,
Nellie's new boss, the team members Nellie will be working with, Nellie's family and friends,
and Nellie's creditors are all affected by her choice.)
 (b) Nellie has the option of declining the job and continuing her search till she finds
something she is interested in. (This decision has an impact on Nellie, her family and friends,
as well as her creditors.)

(c)  Nellie might accept the position and continue seeking until she finds something more
appealing. (Nellie, ABC Company, her new manager, the team members Nellie will be
working with, her family and friends, and her creditors are all affected by her choice.)

5. Compare steps 3 and 4.

o Utilitarianism theory
(a) If Nellie is a poor match for the position, she should evaluate the possible harm or
difficulty to her possible new employer. If she ignores her feelings, she will soon be
seeking for a new work, which will be inconvenient for her new employer and give Nellie
a great deal of distress.

(b) If she declines the job and continues to look, she will have demonstrated a level of
self-awareness that others are inclined to admire. This may be a tough decision if she has
financial responsibilities.

(c) If Nellie takes the position and continues to hunt for another career, she should
evaluate the possible injury or inconvenience to her possible new employer. The cost of
recruiting Nellie, inducting and training new workers, and developing teams and their
interactions with customers and other teams in the organization are all factors to consider.
If Nellie has financial responsibilities, on the other hand, she will need to take the job in
order to pay her debts. Nellie's career will suffer if she is seen as a job hopper who is
reluctant to commit to a position. If she chooses an unsuitable professional decision at
this point in her career, it may also impair her confidence and self-esteem.

Deontological theory
(a) Nellie may have financial responsibilities that need her to accept the first job that
comes up in order to meet them. She may look at the work as an opportunity to learn
something new and see where it leads her. Nellie should keep the job so that her family
and friends are not inconvenienced by her absence. This will have an impact on all
stakeholders, including family and friends, as well as creditors.

(b) Nellie may refuse the job because it is the proper thing to do – she isn't really
interested in it.

(c) Nellie might accept the job and continue her search until she finds the ideal position.
If she has financial commitments and needs the employment, this is the correct thing to
do.
 6. Select a course of action

o Utilitarianism theory
If Nellie considers the repercussions of her actions, she will decline the job and continue
her search for a position that she is interested in. She is likely to hurt both her employer
and herself if she accepts the job and then quits fast.
o Deontological theory
Because it is the ethical thing to do, Nellie should refuse the position. If she accepts the
position, she will be deceiving both her employer and herself.
7. Implement the selected course of action

Nellie should turn down the job and continue seeking for one she is interested in by
narrowing her job search and making it more relevant to the present labor market.
