# She Referred a Stranger in 2021. Four Years Later, That Stranger Hired Her.

**[WIN]** — by Recruiter · Dubai · via LinkedIn

In 2021, Juhi Bhatia was unemployed and desperate. She reached out on LinkedIn to a woman she had never met, asking for a job referral. The stranger referred her anyway. Bhatia got the job. Four years later, Bhatia — now a recruiter herself — had a role to fill in Dubai. She remembered that the woman who had helped her had once mentioned wanting to move there. Bhatia reached out. The interview was scheduled. The offer was made. They were set to meet in person for the first time the following month. “People never forget if you try to help them in their time of need,” Bhatia wrote on LinkedIn. The post went viral — a rare reminder that hiring, at its best, is just humans remembering other humans.
