| Comments regarding your experience working with this person (not required) | Trevor was a great employee and a key piece to our team. Unfortunately, covid and the pandemic changed how retail stores needed to operate and many employees were not brought back after the closure. This had nothing to do with Trevor as an individual or anything to do with his work ethic or daily performance, we would have loved to keep him around for much longer. I'm confident in saying anyone who hires Trevor will be very happy with that decision. |
| Please rate this person's ability to handle conflict with employees and/or customers? | 5-excellent |
| Comments regarding handling conflict (not required) | Trevor was always a constant presence of calm positivity, any conflict that Trevor ever experienced was handled in an incredibly calm and easy demeanor and with a positive outlook. I never remember seeing Trevor flustered or caught up because of something that happened. He was quick to drop anything and move on to help the next person. |

| Comments regarding willingness or desire to improve performance (not required) | Similar to the last answer, Trevor was always looking to grow and take on more responsibilities or tasks that needed attention. This was very much him taking the initiative and not being told or asked to help. |
| What would you consider this person’s strengths and/or weaknesses? | Strengths: dependable, trustworthy, communication, self starter, willing to help/grow/improve anywhere. I didn't see too many weaknesses if any from Trevor, but if I had to think of one it might be sometimes he is too nice, I remember a couple times that Trevor agreed to cover a different coworker's shift even if Trevor had to adjust his personal plans outside of work because of it. He was always willing to assist. |
| Is there anything else you feel would be important for us to know, and if so, please describe? | Even without really knowing the position Trevor has applied for, I think you will be very happy with your decision to hire Trevor and make him part of your team. |
