"Lisa recruited me to come work for Qwest. She was very knowledgeable,
responsive and helpful. Lisa was definitely more "human" than most other
Human Resource professionals that I've dealt with in the past. She took
time to understand my situation and tried to work with my schedule. Lisa
focused on the positive; she asked questions but didn't make me feel like I
was on trial. I was lucky to have her as the company's representative. Now,
I am a very happy, productive employee at Qwest. Lisa helped me find the
right position with the company, a role that I could be successful and
happy in." March 28, 2008.
