For anyone with any kind of reasonable background suggesting they can do the job, the alternative is simple: just give them the job on a probationary basis. Give 5 people the job, tell them one will keep it after a 3 month contract period. Choose the ones you want to keep.
- davidcbc 9y agoThis is a terrible idea. Now if someone wants to interview at your company they have an 80% chance of being unemployed when it is done. Good luck getting good candidates to jump through that hoop.
- clarry 9y agoSuch short gigs that are easy to get into could actually be good for a lot of people. Right now it's often "all or nothing", meaning companies are very careful about who they hire and some people just have a hard time getting to prove themselves in the act. Even if they don't get the job, a 3-month paid gig is better than unemployment. But it really depends on what the position in question is.
