No one ever wanted to hire me. Ever. I've never been recruited anywhere. I have beat my head against every wall, at every place that I worked.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Today, when I hire, I look for people who want to be trained and molded.
If haters or whatever want to find you - I mean, some of them are so tenacious. You want to hire them to work for you. They're very, very savvy in terms of how they find you and get to you.
I have a wealth of experience, but I do not want to coach. I rather like the role of recruiter.
It was only a few years ago that I couldn't get hired to save my life.
I was initially recruited while I was in business school back in the late sixties by the National Security Agency, the nation's largest and least understood spy organization; but ultimately I worked for private corporations.
I literally couldn't get anyone to hire me. Having a woman do sports was seen as too risky.
The thing is, I wasn't surrounded by lots of people who were helping me build a career.
I'm a decent cook; I'm a decent chef. None of my friends would ever have hired me at any point in my career. Period.
When I first started, I was kind of surprised that anyone would ever hire me at all. So I took everything that I was offered.
I was recruited by every school in the country for football and basketball. And an incident happened in high school, and all that was taken away. No other teams, no other schools were recruiting me anymore.
