What path did you take to your current career?
During the years of 2001 and 2005, I was lead to my current career of recruiting because I have always helped make things happen. For my employer I was influential in attracting hundreds of students and experienced professionals, and in 2001, when the outsourcing hit, many of those people, I had worked with were laid off. I created the network to help them, but we became global in 2 years. We had donated several million dollars worth of traditional placements while I was navigating the curve. Today we are a full service contingency and direct placement service, operating nationally, and doing good will efforts globally. I LOVE my career!...

What advice do you have for someone who wants a job like yours?
Care about the end result. Get and stay networked! We are here in this field for a reason. We can accomplish infinetely more with partnership and collaboration than we can as a solo act, but sometimes we put our head down and forget that joy of being really connected.
