The prompt

A government has USD 10 million to help young people find jobs. Programme A (classroom training) costs USD 2,000 per trainee, and 25 percent of trainees find a job they would not otherwise have found. Programme B (paid apprenticeships with employers) costs USD 5,000 per trainee, and 70 percent find a job they would not otherwise have found. Which programme gets more extra jobs for the money?

Practice with a partner

1. Send the interviewer link to a friend. They read the case aloud and hold the answers.

2. You open the candidate view: you see only the prompt, a timer and a notes box.

3. Speak the case out loud. Your partner shares data when you ask, then scores you with the rubric.
