Three candidates showed up for an interview. Of all the
candidates, only one was appropriate for the job. The first
candidate arrived promptly and was dressed professionally. She
spoke articulately and seemed a good fit for the organization. The
next candidate was also on time, but his dress shirt was stained,
his tie was crooked, and he seemed to struggle with the standard
interview questions. His performance during the interview was not
as impressive as the first candidate's performance. The final
candidate, dressed in a T-shirt and ripped jeans, arrived a full
hour past the scheduled interview time. Because of her tardiness,
we did not interview her.
