About Alyssa Gervelis

As a Regional Recruiting Director with Midwest Waffles, I’m a talent acquisition strategist focused on building recruiting systems that align closely with business operations and long-term talent development. My work centers on identifying high-potential leaders and helping organizations scale hiring across multiple markets Including Ohio and PA.In my current role, I lead multi-market recruiting initiatives and partner directly with operational leadership to identify individuals capable of leading complex, people-driven businesses. My approach blends structured sourcing, data-informed decision making, and high-touch candidate engagement to strengthen hiring quality.My recruiting experience spans leadership, operational, and technical roles, with a focus on proactive sourcing strategies and building strong candidate pipelines. I’m particularly interested in how recruiting operations, automation, and emerging AI tools can improve recruiter efficiency while strengthening the candidate experience.Before transitioning fully into talent acquisition, I worked in education and collegiate athletics, where I recruited student-athletes remotely internationally across LATAM and Europe, evaluating talent across diverse cultural and competitive environments. That experience shaped my approach to recruiting—looking beyond credentials to identify leadership potential, adaptability, and long-term growth.Areas of focus include:• Technical and operational recruiting• Multi-market hiring strategy• Recruiting operations and sourcing strategy• Leadership and high-aptitude talent identification• International recruiting across LATAM and European marketsI enjoy connecting with leaders and talent professionals who believe recruiting plays a strategic role in shaping organizations and developing future leaders.
