The Gronholm Method

Madrid. Thousands of people are demonstrating at a protest rally against the International Monetary Fund. Amidst this tense atmosphere, interviews are being held in the skyscraper of a supranational financial corporation for a high managerial position. Seven candidates are going through the selection process, which involves the application of the so-called Gronholm method of elimination, based on psychological tests, which German army officers had to go through after the 1st World War. After conquering a senseless bureaucratic labyrinth, the candidates must then undergo a test founded on humiliating manipulation. Some of the candidates would rather be outside in the street with the demonstrators, but haven’t the nerve to admit it.
