Background

About Candice Young

As a senior-level recruiting leader, I have extensive experience leading full-cycle hiring for a wide range of roles across all functional departments, most recently having focused on Director+ leadership-level roles in a culture- and people-first organization. I view recruiting as both a strategic business function and a way to shape an organization’s future by identifying and hiring the right talent. My approach is hands-on, ensuring that every stage of the hiring process—from sourcing to onboarding—is handled with precision and care. Creating an engaging candidate experience is key in the hiring journey, as it is a direct reflection of an organization’s values and culture. I take pride in building strong relationships with my colleagues and partner effectively across all levels of leadership. My goal is to build strong, dynamic teams by ensuring every hire contributes meaningfully to business growth and success. “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."- Maya Angelou
