ETHICS CASE

Facts: Engineer A is a graduating senior with excellent credentials from State University. Engineer A has had a series of job interviews with engineering companies from around the U.S. Following interviews with several industrial companies, Engineer A decides to accept an offer with ABC Incorporated located in his hometown of Townville, and plans to notify ABC the following week. In the interim period, Engineer A receives a call from Engineer B, an executive with XYZ Incorporated, a potential employer with whom Engineer A had interviewed. On behalf of XYZ, Engineer B offers Engineer Aa position with XYZ and invites Engineer A, at XYZ's expense, to visit XYZ's headquarters in Mountainville, a city located near a resort area, following Engineer A's graduation. Engineer A had earlier decided he would not accept a position with XYZ if offered a position by ABC because Engineer A wanted to be close to family and friends in Townville, and also because ABC provided better long-term professional opportunities. However, after receiving the call from XYZ, Engineer A decides to accept the invitation to visit XYZ's headquarters and combine the trip with a post-graduation vacation, believing that the visit to XYZ will broaden Engineer A's knowledge of the employment market, as well as future professional opportunities with XYZ. A week after the trip, Engineer A calls ABC to inform the company that he will accept the position with ABC.

Question: Was it ethical for Engineer A to accept the invitation to visit XYZ headquarters?

References

You should be identifying 2-5 references from the code of ethics for engineers. You are not supposed to select the correct ethical references. You should select appropriate ones and you have to provide good discussion based on your selections. 

Discussions 

Provide discussion based on references that you select and defend them thoroughly in this section. Your guidance is rubric f for the discussion (I provided rubric f). You have to elaborate these categories from the rubric:
