  abstract =     "This article provides an analysis of student responses
                 to an exercise used in a computer ethics and a software
                 engineering course to raise awareness of issues related
                 to hiring, including issues of professional
                 responsibility and diversity. Students from two
                 different universities were asked to evaluate four
                 candidates for two positions in a fictitious software
                 company. They then developed a set of criteria for
                 evaluation and constructed an argument to support their
                 choices. After discussing their choice with others in
                 the class, students could change their hiring
                 decisions. Students' hiring criteria were coded using
                 emergent categories, inferences in the arguments were
                 coded according to the criteria, and reasons for
                 changing hiring decisions were coded. Students
                 considered criteria that fell into five areas:
                 technical skills, soft skills, personal traits,
                 previous employment, and career/job considerations.
                 Reasons for changing hiring choices included previous
                 experience, diversity considerations, people skills,
                 leadership skills, and reaching consensus. The article
                 also reports inferences students made about the job
                 candidates.",
