[quote=Anonymous]I'm looking for our eighth au pair, and the responses I'm getting back seem much more ... pointed and abrupt this year than I've seen in the past. Both replies (we've only reached out to three candidates so far - we have very strict "rules" about what we want to see as far as experience before we'll even talk to a candidate) have been pretty much rephrasing of "you seem very nice but I'm not interested." One went as far as to say she doesn't want our part of the country. Which I also appreciate, but candidates in the past have used less pointed phrasing. The third candidate hasn't written back at all, which is most annoying. Anyway, I keep telling myself that every year I get discouraged by what I'm seeing until I find "our" candidate. She must just not be loaded into the system yet. Just like you, I just needed to vent and realize I'm not the only one going through this. We LOVE our LCC and know from talking to our au pair's friends that the other companies' LCCs in our area are not nearly as good, so we're sticking with APIA for now - good to hear that CCAP's pool is much the same right now.[/quote]
