Dirk Spencer Bio My recruiting career was a complete accident. We make our plans, life changes them. The Monday after passing my PMP exam (after the third re-take) a church friend offered me a job with her boutique recruiting firm. No recruiting experience, pure reputation and networking. That launched a 3-year career in agency recruiting. That firm dissolved which lead to corporate recruiting. Again, no experience. Name recognition. Networking. With every layoff, RIF (or firing), the new job lands me in a new vertical, new industry and new candidate requirements. This includes experts in AI, robotics, 3D world engines, software development, global banking instant payment systems, e-health, ecommerce, cyber security, telecom and fast-moving consumer goods. Companies include Korn Ferry (Retained Search), Baylor Scott & White (Hospital), JCPenney (Retail), Motel 6 (Hospitality), Interstate Battery (Portable Energy) and others. My 6 books are published in over 200 countries through Amazon World Wide. Find my free content on the net and connect to me on LinkedIn:
