True

Step-by-step explanation:

Interviewing an individual requires considerable time and effort. The applicant must have the skills required, the aptitude to work hard, and be able to communicate and collaborate with others in the organization. A manager often doesn't spend the time to carefully review, and check, the resume. Managers will rely on their ability to judge a candidate simply based on a discussion, level of interest, and ability to answer a few common questions, such as 1) where do you see yourself in 5 years, 2) what attracted you to this job, 3) name your best strengths and identify a weakness, and 4) have you ever had any experience in _____[describe job]___. Like online dating, what you see isn't always what you get.

A good recommendation from a trusted acquaintance can go a long way in when a candidate in interviewed. If they are recommended by someone you know, it helps break any hesitancy in making an offer. A recommendation brings a strong comfort level that would otherwise not be possible with a stranger.
