As a brand ambassador for the company I represent, I introduce candidates to the work, culture, and opportunities of the workplace. I take great pride in placing the right person in the right position so they are able to thrive in the new role and can be challenged with new opportunities. At the same time, the company is awarded top performers who provide great value to the work we do. Essential to my success is creating a strategic plan that not only reacts to the company's needs, but also proactively anticipates growth opportunities and positions us to acquire the best talent. It's equally important to bring new hires into their jobs efficiently and effectively. I create orientation processes that introduce them to the specific tasks, culture and people at the company. And I provide opportunities for hiring managers to establish clear goals/expectations that set up new hires for success. I also focus on employee retention with ongoing performance evaluation training/professional development -- and performance improvement planning, as needed.
