A vendor who has been approved by Grey Star management cannot get hired by individual Grey Star properties for move-in/move-out cleaning jobs despite being qualified.

The vendor approval system (like 'net vendor') only grants corporate-level approval but doesn't connect vendors directly with individual property managers who make hiring decisions, leading to ghosting and missed opportunities.
