Jennifer Vause, Talent Acquisition / Healthcare TA / Operations / Compliance / Employee Onboarding / ATS Specialist

About

After spending much of my early career in higher education recruiting, I made the switch to the healthcare industry over three years ago and I'm so happy I did! As a TA Coordinator, I get the opportunity to help new employees transition into their new roles to support amazing assisted living and skilled nursing communities and residents. Not only do I onboard new hires, but I get to train and support my fellow team members in their daily work and I even get to help staff our communities as well. I thoroughly enjoy the compliance and operations side of things and make sure all ducks are in a row, whether that be in the work place or at home! Everyday I get to be a TA leader and guru and share my knowledge and skills at all levels within my organization.
