[quote=Anonymous]I'm an attorney at an agency that a lot of people want to work for. I am also friends with a lot of attorneys. As a result, I often get requests from friends to pass along their resume, which I'm always happy to do. The sticky issue arises when the inevitable follow-up question comes from the hiring official, "Would you recommend this person?" In most cases, I have no basis at all from which to judge the person's work or whether she would be good at a job beyond the same resume that the hiring official is looking at. I'm afraid that if I say, "Well, I really only know Suzy from the pool, but she seems great," that it seems like I'm tacitly anti-recommending Suzy. What do others do in this situation?[/quote]
