Yeah. Nailed the in-person interview. They turned me down, telling the headhunter that they felt they were unable to connect with me personally.

Five months later, they laid off all but four people. That was in September or October 2008, when economically it looked like the world was ending.

I thank God they turned me down.

They tried to connect with you on a spiritual level and your aura didn't match theirs friend.
