Description
After 6 years of successfully working as a consulting, the industry that I support (mining) has join the many businesses who must cut costs by reducing their workforce. In turn, my primary client, Kinross Gold Corporation closed their Colorado offices. I take this as an opportunity to explore other avenues. I'm seeking to work as a Talent Acquisition professional supporting or managing this function for a major corporation on a regional or international scale.
