Brendon Derr’s Experience

  • Business Development // Recruiter

    The BOSS Group

    (Privately Held; Staffing and Recruiting industry)

    October 2008Present (1 year 2 months)

    "Business Developer by Day, Recruiter by Night" for our permanent placement division. I find the companies who need to hire top digital talent, and I find the top digital talent who they want to hire. I love what I do here, and admittedly I'm somewhat of a web junkie, so working with top employers and job seekers in this category is a lot of fun!
