Problem.

The research aims to identify relationships among the respondents demographic

profile, propensity to trust, perceived trustworthiness of organizations agents (HR
representative and potential manager), perceived hiring organizations
trustworthiness, and job pursuit intentions.

1. What is the demographic profile of the respondents in terms of:

a. Gender

The respondents ages 20 and above covered almost 90% of the total number of
respondents while respondents from ages 19 and below had minimal
representation.

2. How do respondents rate the following variables:

5 (4.20 5.0) = Strongly Agree
4 (3.40 4.19) = Agree
3 (2.60 3.39) = Neither agree or disagree
2 (1.80 2.59) = Disagree
1 (1.00 1.79) = Strongly Disagree

a. Propensity to Trust Neither agree or disagree
