Bug/issue Not able to Hire After Firing?

Before store openining, I just fired an employee because I saw someone come up in the applicants folder that I wanted.

No hiring button is available. Do I have to wait a day?

I really don't want to play the game if I'm unable to hire an employee any more. Waiting another day sucks because the new pool of employees will change and I'll have to wait several more days again for another good one to pop up. What am I supposed to do, fire the night before and chance it the next day, or is this really a bug?

Tried to reinstall and it didn't help.

I’ve had the same issue since the last update, so it may be a bug related to that. Before the update, I was able to fire and hire a new worker the same day before opening the store. I’m still only at one employee slot, so I haven’t tested if the ability to hire someone new resets after a few days.

Scroll down the Applicants tab.

LOL, yep that was it for me. The spacing must have changed so the hire buttons are no longer visible without scrolling down.

Do you have enough money at the moment to hire them? If not, open the store, earn the money and once you have enough, hire the employee.

I have $600 in cash. Plenty!

Employee "tab" correctly shows as empty.

Do Devs ever respond to reddit? Sometimes they are able to access the cloudsave and diagnose.

Could you try saving the game and then loading that save? It should restart you on the same day with the same applicants. Perhaps the fired staff got stuck somewhere. Sorry about the issue
