It was a dark and stormy night on Recruiting Street. A young talent acquisition professional had just gotten done with a hard day's work and was ready to watch a movie to relax. She had just pressed play when a loud crack of lightening startled her. The power went out, leaving her in complete darkness. And that’s when she heard it.

She jumped up and found herself in a cold sweat on the floor. The lights were still on and the source of the voice was nowhere to be seen. It was just another terrible recruiting nightmare.
