A city introduced a "transparent hiring" policy for entry-level municipal jobs: standardized online applications, a skills test, and structured interviews. Despite this, hires disproportionately came from a subset of neighborhoods. A follow-up survey showed that many applicants learned about test preparation resources through acquaintances already employed by the city, while others relied only on the city website. Test scores predicted hiring, but access to preparation was uneven. Concept tested: social capital. Based on the vignette, which conclusion is most consistent with the concept of social capital?
