AVANTE RECRUITING - Key Persons

Growing startups to Fortune 500 industry leaders have relied on Drew as a go-to resource for top project/consulting and sourcing permanent talent. With a proven record of success, he has successfully served hundreds of top clients throughout New York, New Jersey and New England. Early on and throughout his career, Drew realized that the key to success in this industry is simple - clients' needs ALWAYS come first. It is through providing excellent service, working with integrity, and the willingness to go above and beyond, that he has cultivated a network of strong relationships throughout his career. Drew has expertise in interim, contract, and direct-hire staffing and search. His experience spans a wide range of verticals, including Technology, Marketing, Supply Chain, and Engineering, however, he has spent the majority of his career fully immersed in Accounting and Finance. Drew recently managed an office for a large global firm where he was responsible for driving revenue across multiple divisions. It's here that he met future business partner, Nicole Jose, who ultimately helped him launch Avante. Although Nicole has to keep him in check sometimes, Drew's favorite word is still "yes." He has a passion for this industry and a strong desire to improve lives along the way

For Nicole, there is no greater feeling than offering someone a job who is most deserving of it. She understands how life-changing the right opportunity can be, and is committed to making these transformative connections. With over a decade managing teams, Nicole found enjoyment and fulfilment in the sourcing, interviewing, and hiring of employees. For her, the challenge wasn't the training or leadership behind the role, it was finding the right candidate for the job. Throughout her career, she has learned that the right employees and the strategic hiring efforts to find the most qualified candidates were vital to a company's success. With a natural entrepreneurial drive and a determination to make positive changes in the workforce by assisting organizations with their talent solutions, Nicole was lucky enough to cross paths with a brilliant and experienced staffing professional in Drew. After only working together for a short time, she somehow convinced him to take a chance on her. The goal to strive higher and be better led Nicole here to Avante, where it is all about moving people forward. And while she may have to keep Drew in check from time to time, she is grateful to have a business partner that values her opinions and respects her as a human being.
