My goal is to match individuals with organizations that will compliment their skillset and to match an organization with individuals that will be an asset in their culture. Being honest, empathetic, and listening to what not only the candidate desires in their next position but also what the client needs in order the benefit their organization. This is a consultative approach to build and foster ongoing relationships by putting emphasis and dedication into the success of both the candidate and organization.
What this means is to have a thorough understanding of how to effectively collaborate with other professionals and centers of influence to better serve my candidates and clients. The real benefit of this type of approach is better candidate retention and driving more revenue to my clients.
I feel it is important to have a conversation with candidates and to really hear what their priorities are in the next step of their journey. Integrity and honesty are what is most important because with things are out of alignment the situation will not be a success and it begins with me thinking of the candidate and client first.
My background is in the Financial, Retirement, Accounting and Human Resource area. I am considered and expert in finding candidates with the right skills for Third Party Retirement Administrators, Financial and Accounting and the Human Resource area. With a solid background in the Financial and area I have worked closely with the Chief Integration Officer and the Broker Dealer to recruit Financial Advisors for the RIA and the Financial Institutions.
