So much diagrams with made up data. It's like ... it's OK to make up things just because it not falsifiable. Who could have thought?

"Onsite interview (high effort): The candidate goes onsite for a day of interviews at the company."

You don't have to interview for a day, silly.

"Often, resumes are screened in a few minutes (or seconds!)"

Jesus, throw a dice instead.

How about this process.

* Post ad.

* Pick 4 candidates and bring to your office. (Throw a dice to filter resumes out if they are too many).

* Interview them for 1h and give a offer to the best candidate. If he declines, give offer to 2nd best and so on.

That's a bit of a strange criticism. The diagrams are meant to be illustrate a point, not precisely quantify data.

OK true it is a bit of nitpicking.
