Within twenty-four hours of the staff recruitment announcement, Nova Technologies had received 271,000 applications for thirty-six positions.
And the number was still climbing.
The breakdown told its own story. Nurses represented the largest single category, with more than 61,000 applications globally for six positions. Physical therapists came second at 43,000 for four slots. The culinary positions had generated volume that nobody in any professional food service community had anticipated — the Head Chef role alone had drawn more than 28,000 applications from across forty-seven countries, with the viral chef thread contributing a measurable spike in the first three hours after posting.
The kitchen assistant positions, requiring no formal qualification, had received more than 34,000 applications combined. The compensation package and the Lucid device had done exactly what they were designed to do.
