‘YOU GET A GUT FEELING’
Orlando City Driver Trusts His Instincts With Referrals DAMIEN CAMACHO has helped bring several associates to Averitt over the last couple of years through People Like You referrals. That success has been aided by strong instincts that help him know who will be a good teammate. “Whenever you’re referring somebody, you get a gut feeling whether that person is somebody you would want to work with,” explains Damien, who is an Orlando city driver. “It’s like looking at yourself in a mirror and seeing the reflection in the other person. If that person looks like you and is motivated, I go with that feeling. And it’s worked so far.” Damien has been with Averitt for about two years, initially coming here as a member of our PODS team. His People Like You referrals have been a mix of family members, friends he’s worked with in the past, and others he meets during his daily travels. Damien mostly uses the Averitt Team App referral tool, but also relies on referral cards and word-of-mouth. And he’s careful to make sure his referrals

are good long-term candidates. “I want somebody who isn’t just looking for a paycheck, but who wants to do whatever is necessary to help out,” Damien says. “I don’t want to give my recommendation to just anybody.” It’s all about building on our family atmosphere that Damien has come to love during his time here. “We have great benefits, and Averitt treats us as family,” he says. “That’s how I see it. You’re not just a number.” Thank you, Damien, for referring like-minded people to Averitt. Your efforts help us deliver excellence today and keep our culture strong for the future!
