Summary
- I have over fifteen years’ experience in employee recruitment and onboarding within the transportation industry, automotive manufacturing OEMs, Tiers and the heavy manufacturing industry. I have successfully recruited for positions of Management, CDL A&B drivers, non-driver transportation roles, Supervision, Engineering, Operators, Skilled Labor and various Direct/Indirect labor positions. I utilize LinkedIn, Facebook, cold calling, Tenstreet and employee referrals to identify diverse talent, not just the digital job boards. I have a proven record of finding “good” people, who fit the job description of the hiring manager. I have very strong interpersonal skills, well organized, dedicated, good listening skills, good communication skills and extremely task oriented.
- Looking for the ability to work remotely. I have extensive experience and I have been successful with a home office out of GA. Willing to travel for any necessary meetings, trainings.
