Bio
Landon Chang
Karissa was an absolute pleasure to work with during my time at Momentive. Although she was a first time manager, Karissa was able to lead our sourcing team effectively and with a lot of empathy (which I really appreciated)! She is a natural, action-oriented leader and I believe she can bring a lot of value to any talent acquisition organization -- I hope to work with Karissa again in the near future!

Technical Recruiting & Sourcing Leader
-
Aug 2021 - Present
In my time at Momentive, maker of SurveyMonkey, I've grown the technical sourcing team from 2 to 8 (including me!), coached team of entry-level to senior sourcers, drove DEI goals by leading the team of 2 diversity tech sourcers, and remained close to the work by supporting roles. My passion and specialty is in Product Management and Product Design, and since late 2021, I have spent ~30% of my time as a Full Cycle Recruiter supporting those functions, in addition to leading the technical sourcing team.

Technical Sourcer
-
Jan 2019 - Feb 2021
As one of the first talent sourcers at SurveyMonkey, I helped build a better workplace by finding and engaging the best technical talent. I established trusted partnerships across our engineering, product, and data teams by providing talent market insights and bringing high-quality, passive candidates through the recruiting process. Within talent acquisition, I built processes, training for sourcers and recruiters, and one-stop-shop Google Drive with all things Talent Acquisition. I mentored new sourcers and recruiters and helped hire for our own team.
