actual hiring events with interviewing, but there's no reason to
offend the gatekeepers. Ask yourself, would you hire you, if you look

We hire people for hand harvest of fruit. Even for this job, many rule
themselves out the second they walk through the door. Just a shower,
haircut, and change of clothes would have given them a chance.
