Definitely, yes. Provided I&#x27;ve got a need for their skill-set.<p>Why: Because I would be well aware of their core, strengths, and weaknesses at the same time. Moreover, it&#x27;d be counter-productive in spending time to find the person fit for the job.<p>If they were forming a team, would they hire you? I believe they should, provided my skills are useful for them.
