If you're hiring, hire... rather than being understaffed for two weeks (while already knowing who you'll hire).

I have to disagree with you. maybe it's because i am able to overlook differences but the opinion a pr chief has of a player should matter. It matters because anyone can fill out a nice application, but that just shows you can write good, not how well you can act. Not to mention, the GP Chief's opinion of a player should be an overall opinion which means the GP chief has seen the player's actions and reactions to problems while not running for a staff position. Lets be honest, when a player runs for a position, he will usually change his attitude and start being nice. So it's good for a chief to see how you react on a regular day. Now if their opinion of someone is based off of jealousy or something other, then that is an issue. In real life, when you apply for a job you do a face-to-face interview in addition to filling out an application. What i sometimes did for applications when i hired people was have people put their account name and contact info at the bottom of their apps so i could judge them without fear of being biased.
But in the end, if i knew someone would be a bad staff member based on how he treats players, how he responds to problems, etc., the chances of him/her getting hired is slim.
