Meet Your Recruiter
Dawn Viergutz
I am a certified Sr. Staffing Specialist who got into the recruitment and search industry back in Y2K. I worked with another regional staffing firm until I joined Lloyd in 2006 and have been happily employed here ever since. I’ve spent the majority of my tenure working with contract (temporary) talent in roles ranging from Administrative Support to Customer Relations, to Backoffice Accounting and much more. I try to work closely with our staffing associates to address their needs for working contract engagements whether it be for scheduling flexibility, to explore career options or simply because the temporary nature of the work is appealing. I try to get to know my contract associates so that I can keep them as busy as they want to be when it comes to short or long-term employment. I’m a good example of using the pandemic to pursue a dream and recently relocated to my favorite vacation spot, Myrtle Beach, SC as my new home. Fortunately, remote work is a great option. #LIVINGLLOYD
I love to cook, spend time with my daughter and grandkids and get real personal satisfaction when I know I’ve made the ideal match between talent and employer. Everyone deserves a job they enjoy doing!
