Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Conclusion I: Only candidates with an MBA degree in marketing can apply.
The statement does not mention an MBA degree anywhere.
Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion II: Applications of candidates with 6 years of experience in marketing will not be considered for the post.
Since, 6 years is less than 7 years, the statement implies their applications will be rejected.
Therefore, this conclusion follows.
Only conclusion II follows.
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
