I personally hate the way PR staff are chosen. In all honesty, it's about your thought on the person. Their application couldn't mean jack **** so far as showing them to have made an effort. I could absolutely destroy any GP application ever made, but usually I have bad rep with staff because I actually speak my mind to anyone.
tl;dr Hirings are made on pure opinions, no matter how your worth as an actual staff member or the quality of your application.
P.S. Don't believe a staff member when they say they actually like you.
