I upvoted you based on the first 90% of your reply, but that last full paragraph is just silly. Sure, you can evaluate someone more fully in 2 weeks of working

I upvoted you based on the first 90% of your reply, but that last full paragraph is just silly. Sure, you can evaluate someone more fully in 2 weeks of working with them than in an afternoon of interviews, but who's going to spend 2 weeks working with you, just for the possibility of continued employment? No one who isn't both desperate and unemployed, that's who.
