I vaguely remember a question about the timing of strategy development, so C might be relevant, but it seems off to me.

I feel like D could be correct too since HR strategy often aligns with overall business goals, but I can't recall the specifics.

I'm not so sure about A; I remember something about compensation being closely tied to business strategy, not secondary.

Honestly, I'm just hoping I don't get any questions on 'work-life using the HR strategy as a basis'. That sounds like a one-way ticket to Confusionville.
