Wow. So now let's talk for just a second about the client debrief. Again, I think this is a part of it that's like a no brainer, but because so many people just take it for granted, it doesn't end up adding anything to the process. So walk us through your client debrief.

But at thinking ahead, being a boutique firm versus a resume broker or a volume shop, this is an area that we really have an opportunity to make a significant impact, even to your point on the folks who don't get the job.

I know for me personally, I have three kids. Our morning routine To get everybody up, everybody fed, out the door, on time, lunches packed, at the bus stop, pulling out of the driveway, whatever your case may be.

It's a hustle from the second my feet hit the floor in the morning. So when summer comes, it's a welcome relief of whew. Okay, we don't have that race.

Search is absolutely still happening.
