[quote=Anonymous]I think the holiday season has a lot of people with their families, so I wouldn't make much of the responses you getting right now. Things should pick up next week. I was outright rejected by some of the APs who said they didn't want to work with two young kids and preferred older kids. One said she only wanted to consider California. So, there are factors you can't control and it's better not to waste your time with some one who's not really interested anyway. After doing so many interviews, I got the sense that a lot of APs are afraid that they'll feel awkward in the house with you - not free to join you for family dinner, having to awkwardly be invisible when they're off duty. So we address that up front. Car, phone, and guest policies are also big questions for many APs. If you're not letting her bring friends over, that will scare away a lot of candidates. [/quote]
