Fortunately, I was able to lend my services to our Texas team remotely and support several major clients down there—companies that were seemingly recession-proof. We certainly had some challenges with one of those clients, but along with another colleague in the Michigan office we were able to really establish a true partnership including weekly governance calls, scheduled candidate feedback, and pinning down top priorities. It took some out-of-the-box sourcing, constant communication, and me begging for referrals, but we made a lot of placements in their strategic planning group.
