Hiring Process

I was a TERRIBLE interview for my first “real” job.

I had no real-world experience, just a college degree.

Luckily, the interviewer was someone who looked beyond my nervousness. She didn’t ask me the impossible questions I had heard you may get in an interview.

Instead she made me feel comfortable, got to know me and went with her gut, she felt I had potential.

I went on to work as hard as I could for this Manager, learned from her and developed a great deal of respect for her. She was never too busy to answer a question or have a conversation.

15 years later I still appreciate that person giving me a chance and starting my career of learning and professional development. She opened doors for me by allowing me to get my start.
 
In my hiring experiences I have learned that when you open a door for the right person, their possibilities can be endless.
