This includes assisting with and coordination of all steps for the recruitment process, utilizing feedback from hiring departments to develop a firm understanding of department cultures and position requirements (i.e., skills and background required for positions and programs). The main focus for 2023 was Workday implementation and currently, it's developing a cutting-edge Talent Acquisition strategy for the university to utilize in 2024 and beyond.
