About

I’m a Career Coach + Creative Recruiter with a 6+ years of NYC-based experience placing design, advertising, and digital marketing candidates across dozens of industries and environments. Working directly with creative decision makers has taught me what hiring managers are looking for, ways to stand out from the competition, and how to present an authentic narrative. I've helped candidates land freelance and full-time roles at places like Spotify, LinkedIn, Estée Lauder, Havas, Razorfish, Interbrand, Bombas, Hearst, and PepsiCo (to name a few). Plus, I genuinely love meeting new people and guiding them through job searches, career pivots, and all the I-can’t-quite-figure-it-out journeys in between. 👊🏽 Services include: Resume Building, Portfolio Review, Cover Letter Crafting, LinkedIn Navigation + Clean-Up, Negotiating Tactics, General Brainstorming Sessions, Best Practices for Job Searching, Interview Preparation, and Messaging/Outreach. 👊🏽 Candidate Expertise includes: Graphic Designers, Industrial Designers, Art Directors, Copywriters, Content Strategists/Managers/Creators, Social Media Managers, Digital Marketing Specialists, Brand Strategists, Account Managers/Client Service Professionals, Project Managers, Producers, Studio/Resource/Creative Services Managers, UX (user experience) Designers/Writers/Strategists, UI (visual) Designers, Product Designers, + Product Managers Sign up: https://www.thatcreativerecruiter.com/free-course Follow: https://www.instagram.com/thatcreativerecruiter/ + https://www.tiktok.com/@thatcreativerecruiter Visit: https://www.thatcreativerecruiter.com/ Email: thatcreativerecruiter@gmail.com
