So the character pool feature in XCOM 2 is really cool, since it lets you store a bunch of soldiers which will then be used to populate the random recruits you see. The only thing I'm wondering, though, is if there's a way to ensure that when a the list of initial and recruitable soldiers is made that those pool soldiers will always be chosen in place of the random recruits (provided there are any available).
Is such a thing possible?

The other answers were correct but now there is an in game setting for this on the character pool screen. This was added in the March 10, 2016 patch.
