What I'm looking for

I’m looking to continue as a senior IT recruiter where I can own full-cycle sourcing, screening, and hiring for federal/state and private clients—using compliant processes (EEO/contract requirements) and strong candidate pipeline management to deliver timely, quality submissions.

I’m a Senior US IT Recruiter and Talent Acquisition Specialist focused on end-to-end recruiting for contract, contract-to-hire, and full-time IT roles across Commercial, Federal, and State clients.

I handle the full lifecycle—sourcing, screening, interviewing, pipeline management, and offer negotiation—while serving as a liaison between candidates and clients to support strong hiring outcomes.

My work emphasizes compliance and documentation, including adherence to EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) guidelines and contractual obligations, plus familiarity with government contract staffing requirements and timelines.

I’m comfortable using tools like TalentOS and Monster Power Search, and sourcing through Monster+, LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards (Dice, CareerBuilder, Monster+), and social channels, while keeping accurate ATS and internal database records.
