[quote=Anonymous]We had one AP we really liked. Spoke with her twice, she seemed liked she needed more time to weigh options. We told her we would interview more candidates, but she was our first choice, and we would give her two weeks to decide. We couched it like we needed to be fair to other applicants. During this time we sent extremely cute photos of dog and child and checked in with her a couple times. In the end she came to us, she had wanted California, but the other family jerked her around and had less perks (own small car vs. needing to ask for use of minivan, one kid vs. 3 kids, predictable hours vs. run-around). Unless she really checks all of the boxes I wouldn't do that. We are recruiting for a specific language with a small AP pool, so we felt like it was worth it. [/quote]
