In March 2022, Steve Powell called and told me he had just interviewed Josh Barlog and told me he wanted to take a chance on him. "I want to give this kid a shot Bobby. He's hungry and he belongs at Populus Group. There's one thing...he's blind. We'd need to make some investments so he could join the team." "I trust you Steve. Make it happen." Fast forward 2 years and Josh Barlog is celebrating his first recruiter contest win and is one of the top producers in all of Populus Group! At Populus Group, to our core, we believe everyone deserves an opportunity to succeed. It's why we exist. We're so freakin proud of you Josh Barlog! I'm beyond grateful to his leadership - Steve Powell, Jason Jackowiak, Ed H. - for being such amazing Guides for Josh. Hail the Underdog!
Love this. Great story. Ed H. was my first boss out of college - some of the best lessons I've ever learned about the workplace came from him. I'm not surprised to see his name listed here. Josh, I don't know you, but you're an inspiration.
Amazing! Absolutely amazing! @Josh - what an inspiration you are! Truly! I don't know you but you have inspired me today! Wonderful.
