Its success depends on two factors: (1) the number of potential tutors who know about the job, and (2) the proportion of those candidates who find the offered wage acceptable. Match each strategic action with its primary intended effect on these two factors.

Language School Hiring Shortfall
A language school in Paris is trying to hire tutors and offers a wage of €20 per hour. A new, large tech firm opens an office in the same neighborhood and starts offering €25 per hour for entry-level positions that attract the same pool of candidates. If the number of people who see the language school's job advertisement remains unchanged, what is the most likely effect on the school's hiring?
A Parisian language school determines that by launching a new city-wide advertising campaign, it can double the number of job seekers who become aware of its tutor vacancies. If the school keeps its offered wage the same, it is guaranteed to double the number of tutors it successfully hires.
Strategic Hiring at a Parisian Language School
A Parisian language school needs to hire more tutors but is falling short of its target. The school has a fixed budget to improve recruitment and is considering two strategies. Strategy A is to use the budget for a large advertising campaign to significantly increase the number of job seekers who are aware of the vacancies. Strategy B is to use the budget to increase the hourly wage offered. Which statement best evaluates the potential effectiveness of these two strategies?
A language school in Paris offers a set hourly wage to hire tutors. The government then introduces a new, more generous unemployment benefit for recent graduates, who are the primary pool of candidates. Assuming the school's advertising efforts and offered wage remain unchanged, how does this new policy primarily affect the school's ability to hire its target number of tutors?
A language school significantly increases its spending on job advertisements, which successfully doubles the number of applications it receives. However, the total number of tutors the school manages to hire remains the same. Assuming the school did not change the wage it offers, which of the following provides the best economic explanation for this outcome?
