Just because we do not make a video call, for the reasons already set up hundreds of times, it does not make us better or worse proposal, just different.
What are those reasons exactly?
You said one is privacy - but you already released his photo, we know what he looks like. This excuse doesn't hold water.
You said the other reason is.. you won't make a video chat or interview because you already decided that you won't make a video chat or interview. It's circular logic that also doesn't hold water.
If that guy in the picture is actually on this team, you could prove it easily!
