[quote=Anonymous]So sorry to hear this, OP.  YOur track record speaks volumes, so try not to let this "blip on the screen" derail you.

I would reach out to your Regional Director and get her (or him) working for you.  The FB pages and the regular website may list people, but what you want are the good candidates, the ones who are right for you, and only the regional director is going to be able to help with this.  You want the full story of why the AP is in rematch, and again, the regional director will have this, not the FB page.  So I would say make that calll ASAP and don't waste your time searching yourself.

We were in rematch last year when our AP got hurt and had to go home, and it was extremely stressful.  I wanted to cast a wide net so I did - I looked everywhere - but I realized pretty quickly that someone who looked good on FB wasn't really a good candidate for us once I was able to see the LCC notes, so it had been a waste of my time to even start going down the road with a candidate without the Regional Director involved.  The RD was the one who lined up candidates for me, had people in mind to send me even when other families were viewing them, and got me started with one candidate even before we were officially in rematch.  This person will work for you if you push her to, so definitely reach out now.  Again, your history as a HF will tell them all they need to know, and you are exactly the kind of HF they will put a lot of work into, because they know with the right AP, you will be a good bet for a successful match.

GOod luck and hang in there.[/quote]
