To say we were impressed would be an understatement
It was a resume for the ages
Years of experience in a relevant field
A local, able to start immediately
Testimonials? Glowing, every one
Able to crunch vast fields of data
In a single Excel sheet
If we hadn’t seen them for ourselves
Their easy confidence palpable
Even over Zoom
We wouldn’t have believed it possible
We politely thanked the others
Rejection letters sent out
This mythical person was set to onboard
Until they sheepishly admitted
They’d been interviewing elsewhere
The whole time
And we were their second choice
