It 'forced' them in essence to do better cuz if they failed it would affirm the student's initial decision that they weren't the best person for the job.
I haven't had a chance to try this out in a workplace.

Yes, I can see it in the scenario you stated--keep the enemy close. In fact, I have advised electoral winners in my sorority to do the same thing. But I do wonder how it would play out in the workplace.
