    Solution

    (b) is the right answer. We need to replace (2) with (3). The first sentence talks about how the hiring manager was reviewing the profiles of the applicants to make a decision. INARTICULATE means unable to speak in a manner that can be understood This quality is not something that can get you a job. QUALIFIED means competent or knowledgeable to do something ASCERTAIN means to calculate or estimate something. PROPERLY means in a way that is required.
