Records indicate that every newly-hired Bennsoft employee is either a university graduate or is the son or daughter of a Bennsoft executive. Fatima, who has just been selected to revamp Bennsoft's software testing procedures, must be a university graduate, since her father has always been a carpenter, and no carpenter has ever served as a Bennsoft executive.

The argument above relies on which of the following assumptions?

A. Anyone selected to make changes to the way  Bennsoft software is tested must have gone to university.
B. No carpenters have the skills and experience needed to fill a Bennsoft executive position.
C. Fatima would never apply for a job in a company in which a relative works.
D. Bennsoft does not rely on other companies to test its software.
E. Fatima's mother either works for a company other than Bennsoft or is self-employed.
