๐ฐ Story Of The Week
๐ฉบ They needed someone just like Elise. Maybe she knew someone?
Elise was not unhappy, not job hunting, and certainly not ready to trade a comfortable role at a good practice for just any opportunity. But when she learned that her ideal role was filled before she even knew it existed, one question stayed with her: would anyone beyond her own team know she was ready?
