Actually, I am probably more along the lines of JM, if causing massive destruction of some sort is not an option… :)

I destroy the hiring company with a powerful natural disaster of my choosing and let God sort it out. Wait, I am God. I destroy the hiring company with a powerful natural disaster of my choosing and send the mormons to help clean up with nifty t-shirts that say “mormon helping hands.” Then both applicants convert to the gospel (if they are still around after the massive natural disaster) after seeing how helpful those helping hands are, and they worry about higher things than finding a job.

Situation handled.

One of the important differences between the two candidates is a university degree.

I work in an institution of higher learning and my opinion of a university degree keeps declining. The more advanced the degree the greater the potential for stupidity, it seems.

Lots of stupidity in universities.

I would promote within.. always way better unless there was no one within that was not worthy.

And the praying for victory is sports is ridiculously trivial, compared to this situation.

Yeah, I was going to say that if I was God, I’d stay the hell out of it. ;)

Ooo, I was wondering if anyone would choose that option, JM.

I don’t “Bless” anyone with the job. I allow the agency of the chooser to make the choice and then console the broken heart of the applicant who was not chosen. In time, I show the loosing applicant other opportuinities they should apply for.

I give it to the guy simply because he is with the company already and has done well so far.

The rest of it doesn’t enter into it for me.
