Colleagues describe them as "I had the pleasure of partnering directly with Lauren at Lyft and she is simply phenomenal! Anytime I needed interviews scheduled for candidates Lauren was on it, bringing her A game each and every time. Lauren has a keen eye for detail and exceptional organizational skills that enable her to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. She is adept at scheduling interviews, coordinating with hiring managers, and maintaining applicant tracking systems records, and ensuring that our recruitment processes ran smoothly and efficiently. She possesses excellent communication skills and is comfortable interacting with candidates, hiring managers, and team members at all levels of the organization. Lauren is also highly proactive and takes initiative to ensure that our candidates are informed and engaged throughout the recruitment process. In addition, Lauren is a quick learner who is not afraid to take on new challenges. She picked up a rotational project when recruiting slowed down, serving as a People Business Partner Coordinator. For that project she focused on PBP Zendesk tickets, exit interview surveys, Workday tasks, and ticket data tracking. Lauren consistently strives to improve processes and is always looking for ways to enhance the candidate experience. Overall, I believe that Lauren would make an excellent addition to anyone's organization. She has the skills, experience, and attitude necessary to excel in any role and will make a positive impact for recruitment efforts. I strongly recommend her and wherever she lands next, that organization will be so lucky to have her!.", "I have worked closely with Lauren in our role as Leads for Unidos, Lyft's Latinx and Hispanic Employee Resource Group. Lauren impressed me with her leadership skills and organizational savvy from the moment I met her. Lauren brings wisdom, emotional intelligence, and a team spirit to every one of her work interactions. Over the course of a year working together, I have been continuously impressed with her thoughtfulness, compassion, and positive perspective. She is a problem-solver and hard-worker who doesn't back down from challenges. I would highly recommend Lauren and believe that she will be an asset to any team she joins. I sincerely hope I get the chance to work with her again.", and "I've worked directly with Lauren as a Recruiting Coordinator and as a Community Associate. Lauren goes above and beyond with her day-to-day work and passion projects. She takes care of her peers: she'll be one of the first to offer coverage for a peer that is out of office and collaborates to celebrate milestones and new team members. She's eager to be present for her peers and her caring personality radiates in the work that she does. Lauren also delivers impact and builds trust and safe spaces. She's an active member of multiple ERGs, as well as a lead. She creates and promotes D&I-centered events and really steps up to make slack-team groups (all-talent and RC) feel more connected. Lauren is always willing to take on new projects, is extremely thoughtful in helping others, and really sets out to impact the company culture at large. She's a clear communicator and an all-around delightful person to work with! 10/10 would recommend"
