Explanation:

First Question (Percentage of jobs filled by people who 'know someone'):

This is a knowledge - based question about job - hiring statistics. From common knowledge in the context of job recruitment, it is known that around 85% of jobs are filled by people who know someone in the company.

To answer this, we refer to the definition of a 'ghost job'. A 'ghost job' is a job that is listed online, but the company is not actually actively hiring for it. The other options do not match the definition: the first option is about jobs filled by people with connections, the third is about a seasonal job (which is not the definition of a ghost job), and the fourth is about a remote - work - related job (not related to the ghost job concept).

Answer:

B. 85%
