We were once given a great referral on a new employee… only to have her taken back again by the same guy who referred her to us. After losing a long time employee to Motherhood, we decide to hire great and not post an ad but to spread the word instead. That’s when a fellow Rotarian of Don’s tipped us off to a great young, capable, and bright lady that they had interviewed. We hired her on the spot and thought to have struck the goldmine.
That gold rush lasted until the same guy who gave us the referral called her back and offered the job that he had previously turned her down for. Unfortunately she followed her dream into the marketing world; but hey, who graduates college with an insurance degree???
