Drawing on the parallel to job references, a job reference often cannot tell whether a job applicant is the right fit for the job. Mary may have been well-liked and capable at her prior job, but she might not fit well with the dynamic and needs of the new employer (despite a good reference). The new employer might be overly staffed with feel good, busy doers (rather than strategic thinkers or leaders). Similarly, many recs can only go so far, which is where chapters meeting the PNMs and ascertaining fit comes in. A rec from Nancy Northeast who graduated in the 80s might not have any idea whether the PNM will be a good fit in a Texas university in 2015 any more than a reference will know if Mary belongs at the new company.
