The following chart presents the data collected for an on-line job portal InfiniteJobs.com. For each Question, there are two Statements, each of which could be either True or False. Choose one of the following options as an answer:
Statement X: In 2004, the number of candidates offered jobs as a proportion of the number of CV’s posted was higher for Technical than for Managerial candidates
Satement Y: In 2004, among those short-listed by Employers, the Technical category had a higher success rate in securing jobs than the Managerial category.
Let's evaluate statement X first.
For technical jobs in 2004, the number of candidates offered jobs as a proportion of the number of CV’s posted=$$\ \frac{\ 181}{59981}=0.00301$$
For Managerial jobs in 2004, the number of candidates offered jobs as a proportion of the number of CV’s posted=$$\ \frac{\ 48}{15389}=0.00312$$
So, statement X is false.
Evaluating Y,
In technical category in 2004, the number of candidates offered jobs as a proportion of the candidates shortlisted=$$\ \frac{\ 181}{684}=0.2646$$
In Managerial category in 2004, the number of candidates offered jobs as a proportion of the candidates shortlisted=$$\ \frac{\ 48}{138}=0.3478$$
So, statement Y is also false.
Hence, option D.
