> I do need at least one baker capable of drawing a valid orbital configuration.

this way of thinking that contributes to such a toxic job market.

there's too many people applying for too few jobs. that's it.

this bullcrap about inflation, baking bread, interest rates, team building are all symptoms of entitlement.

if you only had 2 applicants you wouldn't be thinking that way.

Well, yes of course. As you said yourself, there's an abundance of people applying for jobs. When you have two bakers apply for your job, you'll keep things simple and hire one. When you have two hundred bakers apply for your job, you can introduce levels of complexity in the hope it will help you identify the best bakers of the 200.

> you can introduce levels of complexity

yes, which is why the job market sucks for most people. being able to do the job is no longer good enough.

Asking people irrelevant questions and rejecting them on irrelevant grounds is a lot sillier than just rejecting people because you have too many applications.
