I would even question how good humans are at deciding who they like working with better.

Even more so than war it is like dating and that is exactly why I question the above. Humans can't even tell better than random who is a good marriage candidate with nearly unlimited time to make the decision. There is a game theoretic poker match going on but we pretend as if both sides don't have cards they hold close to the vest and that there isn't this huge random element with how the cards come off the deck.

The flush draw hits and the hiring manager pretends that it was some kind of fortune telling skill they have.

It is really a great example of where we think of ourselves as this highly evolved society from the Enlightenment but using a process that is practically no different than something the medieval church would come up with.
