The other options (A, B, and D) are all common constraints in the selection process. Time pressures can be a constraint when there is a need to fill a position quickly. Satisficing refers to making a decision that is “good enough” rather than the best decision possible, which can occur when there are limited options or resources available. Organizational policies may limit the selection options available to the hiring team. However, statistical data is not necessarily a constraint as it can be used to inform and guide the selection process.
