Since joining the recruitment marketing industry in its earliest stages, Tuel has guided many of the country’s most prominent enterprise organisations to look beyond legacy job boards and adopt strategic recruiting tools and technologies that lead to deeper talent insights, efficient use of time and resources, and better hires. Her previous roles include Vice President of Client and Partner Strategy at Symphony Talent, Head of Technical Sales and Client Strategy at SmashFly and Managing Director at CareerBuilder.com.

“From our customers’ inevitable quick pivots at the onset of the pandemic to organisations beginning to rebound this year, the work we do in recruiting and hiring is critical to our collective healing and re-growth,” said Tuel. “I’m honored and humbled to take on this role to create a more dignified experience for both recruiters and candidates and help bring back the concept of joy in one’s work to the millions of people who are still experiencing the worry and stress of unemployment.”
