How could the Cobol job . . .


. . . be both a real job for Cobol but also an audition for Saito? Did Saito know that Cobb would be putting him under to extract information for Cobol?

Yes, Saito knew. It's not even the first time they tried.

Saito knew about the job but let Cobb and his team in to see how they did, because he was in the market for a skilled extractor to work for him.
