evidence?

I would like to know what evidence supports the claim that the Foreign Service had "serious recruitment problems" in terms of finding acceptable candidates, when even during the peak recruiting of the Diplomatic Readiness Initiative in 2001 and 2002 more candidates were passing the extremely rigorous exam than the Department was actually able to hire. In fact, the limiting factor has always been the lack of funding, which really needs to be addressed by Congress.
