Career Highlight

"Gen Zs that started college during COVID have one of the most challenging times transitioning to the workplace and understanding the interview process. Building connection is important to them while showing their authentic self. To help solve the challenges that come with interviews, our diversity team takes a white glove approach with candidates for each stage of the recruiting process. This ranges from providing resume feedback and allowing a candidate to reapply, to preparing each candidate one-on-one prior to interviews. A large part of our white glove process is to ensure candidates are clear on next steps, but also have practice to help upskill prior to meeting the business. One program that I created is called CUNY launch which is focused on local NY talent. The program is a two-week hybrid boot camp program which helps prep students for interviews."
