From the Community: Why this Nominee Stands Out
To be considered for the CRCAs, individuals had to be nominated by a peer, manager, colleague, or direct report. This quote was shared by the person who nominated this person for recognition, highlighting the impact and excellence they’ve demonstrated.
“Kelsey is an incredible leader within campus recruitment for so many different reasons! She is incredibly well-rounded, having worked in almost area of campus recruitment from talent acquisition, operations, and management. She is a servant leader and does all she can to prioritize supporting her direct reports and building their growth while sharpening her own skills within recruiting.
This year is the busiest Cognizant has been with internship recruiting ever, and she has taken on the recruiter hat with her direct reports to drive us to our goal. During this time, she has built out new processes and encouraged us as direct reports to share our own best practices towards these new processes. She gives us the credit and acknowledgement in it all. It's a pleasure to have her as my manager.”
