It was exactly three years ago that I met Lara Bojarsky. I had interviewed for a position at her company & had been hired to start shortly after Labor Day weekend. The company (a recruiting firm) was based in the Warner Center area of Woodland Hills, a place that I was very familiar with since I had worked for at least three other companies within a one-mile radius in the last 12 years. The job was part-time & a good fit for me since my … [Read more...]
