If it fits with what I need, I will then ask them if they want to do more, and multi-hire for other jobs and/or other farms.
I've tried that in the past. I usually get no response at all-either from lack of manners or because they are in full screen ,or just don't pay attention. Same reason they lie when in the market place and say they have all the tools or are willing to do anything but refuse when you ask them to chop trees or fish and when they do accept a job they don't really have the tool to make it go faster. I have no problem hiring those who don't have tools but I do have a problem with hiring someone who lies. I wouldn't mind a color code either. It would save a lot of time. Last few times I tried to hire not one paid attention to what I was asking and the message board kept jumping from the spamming from people asking for jobs. Every time I tried to send a private message that person vanished before I finished typing, lol. Just some of the many reasons I do all my own work and continue to avoid the market
