The thing is that interviewing is hard; it is a full-time job, really, and one that could make or break the company. At the same time, interviewing is not something that current employees are remunerated for, materially or even in terms of

That's not what the trial is; workers will be paid 100% of their salary for 80% of their usual time. That's what makes it different from a 'flexible hours' pilot. Overtime is extremely uncommon even in Europe and has to
