Thanks Dan - since your are juiced up for the day, here is another true story. I had a client needing a JDA MMS person, found a candidate that was H1 status working for a contracting company that brought her to the states from Philippines. When I contacted her, she was in tears, said her husband sold their home since the consulting company said it was a long term contract. He was in the plane coming to the states with their 8mth old and when they landed, she was going to have to tell him that the contract was ended (this was like after she had been there 3-4 mths already), and that she was out of work and they had no home and no job. My client was willing to sponsor a direct hire, we introduced her, she was hired and on board within 2 weeks. I met her and her husband and child after an 8 hour drive to the client site, which was way out in the sticks, on the day they arrived to look for housing. They found a house through the Realtor the client offered and were ecstatic because it was so large (like 1200 sq.ft total)...really... very small, but everyone looks at things differently based on where they came from and where they are going.

Thanks for the invite by the way Dean...

With stories like these it is amazing to me that more people don't recruit!

Maybe we should keep this quiet, so as not to get too many people interesting in our industry... imagine what would happen if outsiders knew it was way more than just making money! ssshhhhh

Cheers
