Having a dedicated Talent Acquisition Manager with substantial experience leading full life-cycle recruiting is a cornerstone to any successful business. I recently accepted a position as Talent Acquisition Manager at Smith & Loveless in Lenexa, KS after retiring from 20 years on active duty with United States Navy. I previously led and trained a team of recruiters across four states, ensuring they meet the highest standards of quality and efficiency in attracting and hiring top talent for technical and general positions in the United States Navy. I am passionate about developing and empowering my team, using Lean Six Sigma and High Velocity Learning techniques to identify and implement process improvements, conducting production reviews and training with division leadership.Excellent communication and interpersonal skills have been foundational personal characteristics to success throughout my last 17 years of recruiting. I have the capability of establishing strong relationships and building rapport with hiring managers and candidates. Strong project management and organizational skills have ensured my successful management of multiple competing priorities and meeting critical deadlines. I'm a self-motivated and strategic thinker and have proven it by exceeding quotas and maintaining retention in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. A few core competencies I've developed and mastered are: strategic recruiting; life-cycle recruiting; social networking; project management; applicant tracking systems (ATS); verbal communication and written communication; sourcing, screening, onboarding; performance management; corporate recruiting and agency recruiting; training and development; relationship building; inside sales; offer negotiations; conflict resolution; and sales training.I enjoy what I do because there's nothing better than that feeling when you've helped someone find the right fit in a job. I believe if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life! My 20 years in the Navy have done just that. In addition to my depth of experience in talent acquisition, I also have a National SECRET Clearance and a Crossfit Level 1 Trainer certification, which reflect my commitment to excellence and fitness. Finally, family remains the foundation upon which my life has been built. I enjoy being a father and a husband.My goal is to leverage my skills and expertise attained in the Navy as I transition back to the civilian sector and to inspire others to do the same.
