Bob suggests that Harold needs an IT consultant to help him migrate software platforms. Warbuckle says "I'll consider that" in response to Bob's suggestion. To "hire (an employee)" is to engage or solicit their services for a fee.
Although Bob suggests that Harold should "send him a telegram", this comes after Warbuckle's statement that "he will consider that". Warbuckle is not responding to Bob's request for a telegram.
One does not usually consider a business card. Generally, we consider situations, suggestions, problems and proposals. Although in a very literal sense, we could imagine that Harold will look very closely at Bob's business card, this is unlikely.
Warbuckle is considering migrating IT platforms and not IT consultants. We at Gymglish are not sure how an IT consultant is "migrated". Perhaps they fly south for the winter.

This statement is false. There is no indication in Bruno's email that he will interview Mr. Steele personally.
This statement is true. Bruno writes: "If you could do me the favor of letting me know how the interview goes with Mr. Steele, I would appreciate it".
This statement is true. Bruno writes, "I consider it a privilege for us to have even received (Mr. Steele's) application". Bruno's phrase could be replaced by "we should be proud", which shares a similar meaning in this context.
This statement is true. Bruno writes that previously the IT team was made up of "bumbling morons". "A moron" is an "idiot", and the adjective "bumbling" also describes incompetence or clumsiness.
This statement is false. Although Bruno seems to be putting pressure on Luna to eventually hire Jeffrey Steele, he leaves the final decision to Luna DeLune. This is why Bruno asks Luna to "keep him informed" about the interview at the end of his email.

This is true. Susie tells Harold that he will "found the Warbuckle's Mountain Bear Rehabilitation Clinic". The verb "to found" is synonymous with "to establish" in this context.
Early on in the dialogue, Susie tells Harold "you must make a public declaration that you've given up bear hunting forever".
This statement is false. Susie wants Harold to donate his bearskins to a museum, not to join a museum.
This statement is false. There is no indication of Harold "stepping down" from his position as chairman of his company. The phrasal verb "to step down" describes the act of "resigning" from a job or position.
Susie asks Harold to "donate his bearskins to the local natural history museum". "To donate" shares a similar meaning with the phrasal verb "to give away" in this context, both expressions describe the action of "giving" or presenting an object to someone. A bearskin is the fur or coat of the bear. Some people have rugs made of bearskin, and they often place them in front of the fireplace.
This statement is false. Harold tells Susie "you like to keep things professional. I like that". However, Susie never instructs Harold to "hire" (or employ) professional help.

Bruno says, "Susie, you'll have to postpone your plans for the anti-exploitation ad campaign". The term "postpone" means to "put off to a later time" or to "delay". If Susie has to postpone something, that means that she had to delay it, but not cancel it, which means to "abandon" or "nullify" it.
This statement is true. Bruno admits that the negative exposure which Susie warns against is a concern to him. He says, "if we're risking the type of negative exposure and financial risk... we will go in a different direction", meaning that he is ready to change labor practices because of his concern.
At the beginning of the dialogue, Bruno states "I'll visit our facilities in Asia myself, if I have to." He is volunteering to travel to Asia and visit Delavigne's facilities personally, if that is what is required.
Bruno tells Philip and Susie that he isn't interested in the OILS charter, and that going into business with a third party doesn't interest him either. He also says that he is confident that the company can manage without becoming certified.

This is an incorrect choice. To "retire" is to stop working. Bruno's accountant is not encouraging him to stop working, but rather to legally declare that he has no money. There is no indication that Warbuckle's accountant finds him "incompetent" either.
This is an incorrect choice. Warbuckle's accountant makes no mention of Bruno Delavigne whatsoever. Warbuckle actually calls Bruno "a good partner", further evidence that he has no intention of ending his partnership with him.
This is the correct choice. Warbuckle tells Bruno that his accountant says that he "should consider filing for bankruptcy". To "file for bankruptcy" is to begin the administrative process of declaring that one has no more money. This process requires legal documentation. It is never mentioned in this scene whether Warbuckle will file for personal bankruptcy or corporate bankruptcy, though it seems more likely that Warbuckle will declare personal bankruptcy, as he hasn't mentioned his company's financial situation at this point.
This is an incorrect choice. To "downsize (a business)" is to make it smaller by reducing costs, and usually includes firing personnel. This is not what Warbuckle's accountant has advised him to do.
This is an incorrect choice. There is nothing in this dialogue which suggests that Warbuckle will "hire a lawyer" and "take Bruno to court". To "take someone to court" is to take legal action against them (in order to win a cash settlement, for example). Example: My mother took my father to court in order to win custody of my brother and me. This action is also described by the verb "to sue (someone)".
