“I had the pleasure of working alongside Jamie at FLYR Labs, where she quickly rose to the position of Head of TA within just a few months. Jamie brought calmness and stability to a highly volatile recruiting environment and was a fantastic leader to her team, fostering psychological safety amidst challenging conditions. Jamie is an exceptional thought partner, and together we executed several strategic initiatives. Her ability to build a culture of recruiting goes beyond mere words; she genuinely knows how to create trust and confidence with the executive team and hiring managers who had previously been skeptical about recruiting. Jamie is the real deal when it comes to recruiting. I would work with her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to any company in need of a recruiter who can drive a thoughtful process and deliver outstanding results.”

How can you tailor relocation and onboarding support to meet employee needs?
I've found that understanding the specific needs of an individual is key when planning for relocation, including housing (do they need to sell their current home, do they need support finding new housing or the right neighborhood for them?), family (are they relocating alone or will they be joined by family members/pets and how can they all be best supported - for example, introducing them to someone in the company with kids in the same school district they'll be moving to has proven to be invaluable), and timing (how soon can they make the move and when will they feel settled and ready to start their new job?). Taking the extra step to humanize the relocation process sets a company up for employee success and retention.
