Experience

1. Director of Recruiting

   Hawthorne Executive Search

   Jan 2011 — Present · Wilmington, NC, US

   Freddy is a senior recruiter that focuses on healthcare providers, digital media groups and advertising/marketing agencies. After working in the mental health and recruitment field for 16 years, Freddy brings a unique blend of interviewing, consultative sales and group communication facilitation experience to the table.Philosophically, Freddy believes that the client’s needs come first and that a candidate must not only be qualified for a position, but also be a fit for the company’s culture and mission. In general, healthcare organizations prioritize in terms of the importance of individual well-being goal achievement. This is also true in the digital media space with regard to the recruitment process which results in him finding a smaller group of highly qualified and committed candidates for the organization to review. Freddy approaches recruitment as a Sales Executive. Selling a client on the benefits of utilizing a third party recruiter is key when most employers feel they can fill their roles independently and free. Just as important, Freddy loves selling the perfect candidate on the role provided by the client and putting him or her in position to make a positive career leap. In his tenure at Hawthorne Freddy has worked on searches nationwide and actively recruits in the media and healthcare spaces building up a strong database of candidates. Some representative searches he works on are:Marketing DirectorsDevelopment Coordinators/ManagersSales ManagersC-level ExecutivesMedical/Retail/Digital Media Professionals
