Discussions about Hiring and Hiring Practices

Also sometimes you click on someone and they don't respond right away. So you think they don't want the job and you click on someone else. Then they both show up at your farm. I know the button turns from Orange to Yellow, but it takes a long time to turn.

Hi marleneho

Once a hire request has been sent out the person has 30 seconds to accept or deny the request, once the time runs out a denied confirmation will be sent back to the sender, plus a person can only receive one request at a time.

Also when sending a hire request, the avatar name label background color for the player you are trying to hire will change to Orange. If the player rejects the request or if the request expires after 30 seconds, the color will change to Yellow, this will provide a hint to avoid sending several hire request to the same players.

Yes, this works MOST of the time. HOWEVER, MANY times I have waited, the person whom I tried to hire has turned yellow, and so I move on to someone else. 2nd person accepts and then, I get a notice that the first person (who had turned yellow) has accepted as well. Makes it look like I multi-hired when I actually did not according to the changing color system.

Hi Gail Green-jeans

Sometimes this happens as data has not updated correctly.

But in case you get this problem more often, they you could report it to Support and see if they can figure out what is happening.
