I've created a prompt that should select a requested number of employees from the list. But the step 1 doesn't work properly. Sometimes GPT takes in account only the time range and ignores the date. I tried to describe this step in a different way many times, tried different time formats including UTC, but didn't succeed. Maybe experienced prompt creators can tell what's wrong with my prompt?

Do step-by-step:
- Remove from the "employees" list above each employee if any time interval in
"busy_date_time" list overlaps with "required_date_time".
- If the number of employees left in the "employees" list is less than
"required_employees_number", set the new value to "required_employees_number" equal
to the number of employees left in the "employees" list.
- Select "required_employees_number" employees with "required_experience" and lower
"interviews_conducted" value. You shouldn't find the one with the lowest
"interviews_conducted" value among all, but a required number of employees which is
"required_employees_number".
- Check the previous step where you usually make the mistake of selecting 1 employee
with minimum "interviews_conducted" value among all employees when you need to select
a list of "required_employees_number" employees.
required_date_time = '''{"start_time": "February 10 2024 10:00", "end_time": "February 10 2024 11:00"}'''
required_employees_number = 1
required_experience = "middle"
