Sounds like you?
As a person, you are proactive, collaborative and outgoing, with a natural ability to connect with people and build trust with candidates, hiring managers and stakeholders. You enjoy being visible in the market, building networks and representing atNorth as an employer.

You are someone who takes initiative and makes things happen. You are comfortable driving your own work while bringing others along, building strong stakeholder relationships and turning ideas and hiring needs into action.
