-**Inherently, picking out candidates requires the use of judgment with limited input. Recruiters must be skeptical to succeed in their position. Ultimately, recruiters must make dogmatic judgments to hire, for the recruiting process itself has to make decisions with very limited input that is well beyond the facts.**

 A resume, preliminary phone interview, and 45 minute in-person interview (that is if the person succeeds at captivating the interviewer for 45 minutes) is a very brief snapshot of someone’s life. At best, this ”candidate sequence [CS]” provides a summary of responsibilities, talents, and accomplishments. At worst, it represents nothing – every sentence is a lie. In reality, the CS is an amalgam of truth and lies. A conservative conclusion is that the CS is a very flawed method for hiring individuals. Relying on CS alone is bound to lead to a higher number of failures.
