ANSWER

D.  Unqualified applicants will need explanations about why they did not get the job.

As JEG Inc. wants to fill up their positions by doing recruitment from within the company itself rather recruit externally, in such situation, JEG wants to take advantage by maintaining paternalistic management style, here, they have created an ecosystem where employees are treated as family members, in case of any opportunities, they are given information first, such kind of organizational culture are much controlling in nature. Hence, correct answer is “JEG favors a paternalistic management style and its organizational culture tends to be rigid and controlling.” Other options are not related, so, other options are eliminated.
