About Gabriella & Co
Throughout my career, I have helped organizations succeed through talent acquisition. As a full-cycle recruiter and consultant operating in all industries, I have worked in leading companies in these sectors: Tech, Construction/Engineering, Automotive, Manufacturing, Retail and others across North America.
I have worked with various hiring managers combined with over 5+ years of experience learning to fill talent needs quickly and efficiently. My approach has always been where the business needs are and how I can best help, assist and guide companies with talent hidden in the market and consult their hiring needs.
Resume writing is the cherry on top of what fulfils me, knowing that I can guide and consult the best approach for putting together a good resume. We all know that a resume doesn't do justice in presenting someone's work experience and who they are. However, it's an excellent way to grab their attention and that curiosity of showing your resume creatively.
