Simonia Griffin
Senior Sourcing Specialist
GE Vernova
Nominated For: The Talent Innovator Award
This award recognizes the experienced early career professionals who are reimagining how companies connect with Gen Z talent. They challenge traditional thinking by introducing new strategies, platforms, and touchpoints to meet students where they’re at. Whether through technology, storytelling, or community-building, they’re closing the gap between how recruiting has always been done—and how it needs to evolve.
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.
“This recruiter didn’t just reach out with a generic job posting—they led with purpose and made the entire process feel meaningful. From the start, they talked about the company’s values, culture, and real-world impact, which immediately caught my attention. They asked thoughtful questions about what mattered to me, like diversity, sustainability, and growth opportunities, and made space for open, honest conversations. It felt like they truly cared about aligning my goals with the company’s mission, not just filling a role. Their approach made the experience feel personal, inclusive, and inspiring—exactly what Gen Z is looking for in an employer.”
