PK0-005 Question #242: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

After months of recruiting, a team finally found the right candidate for a very specific coding language assignment. Due to this delay, the team has a tight timeline without any float. A day before the candidate is scheduled to join the team, the project manager realizes the candidate has a non- compete agreement from the previous employer. Which of the following should the project manager do?

Options

• AWithdraw the offer to the candidate and raise this as a risk.
• BIgnore a potential lawsuit since this is a critical project.
• CUse a third-party company for the contract to legally avoid responsibility.
• DHave a meeting with the project sponsor to discuss the situation.

Explanation

The project manager should inform the project sponsor about the issue and seek their guidance and support. The project sponsor is the person who provides the resources and authority for the project, and who can help resolve any conflicts or problems that may arise. The project manager should not withdraw the offer, ignore the lawsuit, or use a third-party company without consulting the project sponsor first, as these actions may have legal, ethical, or financial implications for the project and the organization.
