🔍 FAQ:

💼 “What types of roles do you recruit for?”

I've supported hiring across product, tech, analytics, operations, and emerging functions like AI & data science—mainly in high-growth environments. I love helping orgs scale.

🧠 “What’s your approach to recruiting?”

I lead with strategy, empathy, and collaboration. Every search starts with understanding the real need, then aligning process, tools, and people to deliver a great experience.

📊 “Do you use data in your hiring strategies?”

Absolutely—I use data to spot friction, forecast needs, improve DEI outcomes, and help hiring managers make confident, bias-aware decisions.

✍️ “What do recruiters really look for in a resume?”

Clarity, relevance, and a clear sense of impact. Show me what you did and why it mattered. Bonus points for storytelling.

💬 “What’s one tip for interviewing better?”

Treat it like a conversation, not a test. Prepare stories that show how you think, solve problems, and collaborate. Follow the S.T.A.R.T method.

🤔 “What if I don’t meet all the qualifications in a job post?”

Apply anyway if you meet most of them. Great recruiters and hiring managers know how to spot potential and coachability—not just checkboxes.

🐶 “What’s up with Magnolia?”

She’s my Aussie Doodle and unofficial Chief Wellness Officer. Occasionally joins Zooms. Always approves my job offers.

✈️ “What’s one place you’d love to live for a year?”

Argentina. Sunshine, steak, espresso, and a great tech scene.

🌶️ “I heard you make hot sauce?”

Guilty. It started as a pandemic hobby and became a full-blown obsession. I even named one after a tough interview panel.

🦄RAQ: Rarely Asked Questions

🐢 “How fast can you update a job description?”

Faster than a turtle, slower than Slack notifications. Speed varies based on how many stakeholders are CC’d.

🧠 “Do you remember every candidate you’ve had interview?”

No, but I do remember the one who arrived onsite wearing rollerblades and didn’t bring a spare pair of shoes. (Respect.)

⌛ “How many browser tabs do you keep open while sourcing?”

It’s not about the number—it’s about the vibe. (Currently: 23 and counting.)

🛒 “Do you judge people for having a messy LinkedIn?”

Only if it has two “Open to Work” banners, five current jobs, and Comic Sans.

🐕 “Would Magnolia be a good recruiter?”

Absolutely. Great instincts. Zero bias. Will work for belly rubs.

🥡 “Do you believe in recruiting karma?”

100%. You ghost someone, the universe ghosts you back—with cold pad thai and a slow Wi-Fi connection.

🥝 “What’s your most controversial food take?”

Kiwis should be eaten like apples. Skin and all. Don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it—fiber, flavor, efficiency. Elite fruit behavior.
