Why do I think this is funny?

From the PNJ After two previous unsuccessful attempts to hire a council executive, the council contracted with Landrum Staffing, a Pensacola job-placement agency, in June to present Hall with a list of five finalists. He narrowed the field to three and asked Myers to help him identify a single candidate.

LOL The city has to ask Landrum to help them find a Council Executive...

I have had to hire technical folks and it is cumbersome. Personnel doing the hiring, their HR department, should be qualified to handle the application/review/hiring process without having to hire a consultant to do their jobs.

The consultant money could go to fill in Hallmarkgrad's potholes.
