Notes on keys to success for this specific example:

1. Candidates skipped an interview step if scored well on initial screen
2. 2 different start dates (Dec + Jan) to simplify onboarding
3. 2 week training
4. 5% acceptance rate
5. From actual interviews, we got 25% acceptance.

1. A figure of 5-10 hour per week recruiting commitment was mentioned. Assume this was the majority - then 7.5 hr * 40 people * 8 weeks = 2400 hours of recruiting time for 100 people - 24 hours per person? Way too much. Initial screen of 2100.
