You need to hire a new medical technician for the emergency room of your hospital. The technician must have a thorough knowledge of medical terms and procedures, and will be interviewing patients to determine the nature and extent of their problems before they are routed to a doctor or to the waiting room. Most of the qualified candidates will be those who comes from Asian countries, who have studied medicine in their home countries, but whose MD degrees are not recognized by the U.S. Can you require that only English-speaking candidates need apply?
A. yes, because most of the patients will be English speaking
B. yes, because communication will be an integral part of the job, and most often communication will be required in an emergency situation
C. no, because under Title VII, English-only speaking requirements are presumptively discriminatory
D. no, because most of the qualified candidates will be from countries for which the first language spoken is not English
