What do you like most about your job/position? One of the best parts of being a recruiter is getting to make a real impact on people and companies. Helping candidates find jobs that fit their skills and goals can really change their lives, and building long-term connections helps me grow professionally. The fast-paced nature of the job keeps things exciting, whether I’m finding candidates or working out offers. It’s super rewarding to help someone land their dream job or help a company find their next great hire.

What advice would you give to current students at BVU? My advice for current college students is to take full advantage of the opportunities around you. Get involved in campus activities, internships, and part-time jobs to build both your skills and your network. Focus on developing key soft skills like communication, teamwork, and time management. These will take you far in any career! Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone, whether it's taking the lead on something around campus, trying new experiences, or reaching out to mentors for guidance. Most importantly, stay curious and open to new ideas. College is the perfect time to explore your interests and figure out what excites you.
