Curious Candidate Concern (Posted on 2010-02-02) Difficulty: 3 of 5
There are six civil service job openings. Allen, Betty, Candice, Denise, Edwin, Francine, Greg, Hannah, Jane, Kyle, Leon, Mitch, Norman are the thirteen candidates who passed the civil service exam with equally high scores. So the administrators gave them all a second test. This one had only five questions, each with a Yes/No answer.

The test results of the candidates had thirteen different answer sequences. The top six had the same number of correct answers and were all hired. Three of those who were not hired, had their answer sequences as follows:
  • No, No, Yes, No, No
  • Yes, No, No, Yes, Yes
  • Yes, Yes, Yes, No, Yes
Determine the correct sequence of answers.
