HighFade Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 We need some help from above! Still waiting to hear about getting a job, and my daughters car broke down. There goes another 800-1200 bucks! And me with no job.....when it rains it pours. Should hear about the job very soon. Pray for me, rev (and anyone else who is so inclined) Still keeping my head up, but it's getting more difficult.

dru_ Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 All three of my most recent hires, I have done through online gaming communities. I've been able to evaluate them as people and how they interact with others before I have actively recruited them. So I can see the value. When you hire someone, you are hiring far more than a resume and you need to know they can work into a culture as well as a job role.

It is in intriguing philosophy....but at some point one must make the Leap of Faith in another. After all, it is our faith in others that keeps us all believing.
