Tasha smiled sheepishly and explained, “There were some family issues, and I didn’t want them to know I was looking for a job. Will that affect today’s interview?”

Natalie shook her head with a slight smile and continued reviewing Tasha’s folder. “No, the interview will solely depend on the quality of your work.”

Dolores, noticing that the candidate and Natalie knew each other, narrowed his eyes and asked, “How do you two know each other?”
