Have you been a part of a group in which corruption of leadership has occurred? Do you feel it is un

I once applied for a job where I was competing against the bosses nephew. While on paper my credentials were better, he ended up getting the job over me. This form of corruption is known as nepotism. Nepotism is when a person in authority gives jobs to their relatives. Nepotism is generally considered wrong, and conflicts with the principle of merit, where the best person gets the job. Some sources say:

Nepotism does not necessarily provide governments with the best candidates but, in a climate of distrust, animosity, backbiting, and disloyalty, it may well be safer and even more efficient for leaders to have family members in key administrative positions.

The only way to avoid the situation would be to find another job, where I wasn't competing against the relative of the employer.
