You can put this solution on YOUR website! You gave us a lot information but there is no question. A, B, C, D, and E. She interviewed eight people and concluded the following: Applicant 1 can work in departments A, D and E,
 Applicant 2 can work in departments A, B, and C,
 Applicant 3 can work in departments B and E,
 Applicant 4 can work in department C only,
 Applicant 5 can work in departments B and D, and
 Applicant 6 can work in departments B, C and D,
 Applicant 7 can work in departments C and E,
 and Applicant 8 can work in any department.
 One selection is:
 Start with the most restrictive
 
 Applicant 4 can work in department C only,
 Applicant 7 can work in departments C and E, C is taken so he goes in E
 Applicant 3 can work in departments B and E, E is taken so he goes in B
 Now we need A and D
 Applicant 2 can work in departments A, B, and C,b and C are taken so he goes in A
 D is left
 #5 can go in D
 #8 can go in D
 #6 can go in D
 #1 can go in D
 There are 8 applicants for 5 positions. You can't hire all of them
