So you are saying the Attornies will not be giving up their full time employment to become one of yours? Also, does this apply to the Sales Account Mgrs? Are they also not full time employment? If they are, then my question would apply to them. An…

These are NOT perm placed attorneys. They are going to be contacted in order to accept referred cases. We are building an attorney referral database in other words.

Good morning Paul. Looking forward to the discussion today. My name is Denyse and it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm hoping you can help me with this question. You mentioned in your bio that you started out as a Recruiter at Snelling. Do you believe it's necessary to first work in Recruiting in order to do pure sourcing as a career. Do you belive one needs that framework to be able to be a successful sourcer (telephone or internet). Thanks for your input! Please let me know when you complete your book - I'd be very interested in reading it!

Cheers, Denyse
