In the end the person the agency wanted to hire withdrew because she the handwriting on the wall because the hiring process was too slow and cumbersome and because she realized that, as a supervisor, she would have to use the same process in recruiting her own took one agency 540 days to complete the process of firing a clerk-typist for abusing her paid-leave privileges.
