Danielle Ford
Campus Recruiter and Internship Program Manager
Third Bridge
Nominated For: The Talent Innovator Award
“When I first joined (Third Bridge), our campus recruiting efforts were practically non-existent. Since then, I’ve watched Danielle build our campus presence from the ground up. Not only has she increased the volume of candidates applying, but she’s raised the bar in terms of quality too. It’s been amazing to hear the excitement and insight candidates now bring to interviews, and that’s all thanks to Danielle!
She’s been key in getting our name out there, whether through campus outreach, info sessions, or just being present and consistent with our partner schools. Her work even helped us secure the 2025 Handshake Early Talent Award, which speaks to the reputation she’s helped us build. When I attend campus events now, I meet students who already know about Third Bridge and are genuinely excited to engage with us. She’s a pleasure to work with, always thinking ahead, and constantly finding new ways for us to connect with top talent.”
“Established new joiner networking socials along with regular-cadence onsite visits with students from our partner schools (various groups and organizations from those school), which each provide unique opportunities for Gen Z talent to engage with our firm directly in-person.”
