草榴社区 Diaries: Jordan & Udell
A wise man once said, 鈥淲e believe our culture is constantly evolving, and our goal is to empower our employees to be the authors of who we will be.鈥 That wise man is our CEO, and we happen to agree with him. What better way to improve our culture than to hand-pick the people who will continue to write our story?Spoiler: there isn鈥檛 one. Employee referrals are one of the many things that make 草榴社区 a great place to work. And this year, we challenged our employees to help us find more awesome people than ever before. How, you ask? By giving 草榴社区鈥檚 top referrers TWO FREE ROUND-TRIP AIRFARE TICKETS to anywhere in the continental U.S.We interviewed the candidates, we extended the offers, and we tallied the results. All in all, we had 83 referral hires鈥 and three big winners.But one story stood out above the rest. Jordan Craven used his tickets to fly across the country鈥 and GET MARRIED. Shameless plug: read Jordan鈥檚 on his blog.
Grab the nearest tissue box. Here鈥檚 what happened when we sent him to Denver, Colorado with a camera and his fianc茅, Udell (one of the referrals we most definitely hired).
The 草榴社区 Diaries is an ongoing series in which real 草榴社区 employees share their experiences 鈥 inside and outside of work. Watch the full and other videos on Youtube.
