Marcus Perdue

Hi Justin -

My name is Marcus Perdue and I am actively searching for my next role and feel that based on the qualifications along with my extensive, talent acquisition, executive recruitment and TA Management background, I believe that I am a great fit for a dynamic, talent acquisition role.

As a TA Leader, I strive to provide a stellar, candidate experience; utilizing a strategic, yet hands on and executional approach while using data to drive the hiring process with stakeholders. Although I come from financial services, with my thirteen years of talent acquisition experience, I also have seven years of experience hiring executive-level and C-Suite individuals; all of which I find those aforementioned skills to be industry and recruitment agnostic.

My recruiting performance is well-above the industry standard with an average time-to-fill of: 44 days. (2024 year-end data.)

My Responsibilities Include:
· Regular meetings with stakeholders including C-Suite to understand current and future needs, as well as building targeted sourcing strategies and timelines; managing the hiring leader's expectations along the way as their strategic talent advisor.
· Proactively search for, identify, network with and directly contact active and passive job seekers, both internally and externally, for vacancies. Sourcing the best candidates using a variety of channels that are aligned to and effectively communicate the employment brand as part of full-cycle recruitment.
· Meet defined recruiting metrics for quality, cost, cycle time, diversity; all while providing a white-glove experience for candidates and business leaders throughout the hiring process.
· Support plan execution to meet hiring dates by evaluating employment qualifications such as job experience, education and training, skills, and knowledge and abilities for non-exempt positions through resume/profile review and phone screening as appropriate.
· Negotiation and extension of employment offers with candidates and completing the pre-employment process according to the recruiting guidelines.
