"Hi, Skip, What's happening?"
"Well, I'm back to looking for a job and I need your help. When can I come in to see you?"
"How about Wednesday at 10:30?"
"Can't we meet earlier? I'm really motivated and please could I come in earlier so we could get the ball rolling?"
"Okay, sure. Does 8:30 work for you?"
"Oh, that's great. Perfect."
"See you then."
Skip showed up right on time. Actually a little early. We discussed what he had done for the past year and how it would reflect on his resume since he had only stayed with his last position for 8-9 months and wasn't currently working. Since his prior track record was pretty solid and he had been with one company for over fifteen years, I didn't think this would be too much to overcome. Plus, he had a lot of charm and charisma and regardless of what kind of position he was seeking; charm and charisma almost always come in handy.
