"When you were hired" is a subordinate clause that contains a subject ("you") and a verb ("were hired"). It cannot stand alone as a sentence, so it is a dependent clause instead of an independent clause. The other options are not clauses - A is a prepositional phrase, B is a verb phrase, and C is also a prepositional phrase.
