Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Content validation is most appropriate for a newly created position because it involves defining the tasks that make up the job and then developing assessment measures that directly relate to those tasks. For new positions, where historical data on job performance may not exist, content validation helps ensure that the selection measures are relevant to the tasks and responsibilities of the job.
