A local toy company is recruiting from the mortgage industry to increase its sales department.  I received one of these recruiting calls.  I sort of giggled to myself..."this is a change in attitude - an industry wants one or several of US".  Presently, mortgage brokers are not that highly regarded.  It seems that this particular toy maufacturer thinks that mortgage brokers fit the bill nicely.  The recruiter said, "Loan Originators are used to a quick response, great follow-up and they tend to communicate well."  WOW, I was blown away...a positive comment about an industry that has been under fire.  There are people out there who like us, YAY!
