Let's say you want to hire a secretary (sorry: a PA). A hundred women have applied for the role, and you're interviewing them one by one in random order. After each interview, you have to make a decision: will I hire or reject this candidate? No sleep-ing on it, no putting it off until you've seen all the applicants. The decision you make straight after the interview cannot be overridden. How do you proceed?
