Lead Recruiter

*********@*****.*** JONATHAN R. UNSON Cell: 707-***-****

Lead Recruiter //Start-ups//HR

SUMMARY

I’m a data-informed and tenacious recruiter who’s passionate about building teams that help make our world better. I’ve recruited for private start-ups as well as Fortune 500 companies, and been matching top talent in sales, marketing, product, software engineering, executive level and more. When I’m not looking for GIF’s to use in my outreaches, I’m thinking about what body part I’m working out that day and how to maximize gains, in Tahoe taking advantage of the powder snowboarding, hanging out with my wife and son playing VR, or trying to pet a stranger's dog on the street.
