oh ok, got it.
I can't find the explanation for this question. Is it possible someone can explain?
Context is the first two sentences.
Main conclusion: Their decision is foolish
then goes on to explain why their decision is foolish (which are premises supporting why the decision is foolish) specfically mentioned they should have revealed after they were hired.
Answer choice is C: Because it's simply restating what the author has already said in different words and it is what the information that the other provides is building towards.
E is wrong mainly for the fact that it is an assumption that the author makes, but is certainly not the main conclusion of the argument.
Essentially for this question you see the author give an opinion on situation, and he then goes on to justify that opinion. Therefore the opinion is the is the conclusion.
