Bio
Chip Smith
A constant contributer, Margarita worked hard to expand her professional talent adding an MBA degree and SHRBP credentials to her title. She worked her way through some tough and complicated trench work supporting highly demanding technical expats, with complicated international employment packages. Margarita interpreted policy and delivered policy changes, and was well liked by employees. She consistently met HR demands quickly and successfully. She frequently went above and beyond rrquirements with senior positions in a global environment to resolve problems and follow through. All this in an environment where there was often little or ambiguous direction from Senior Management. I would hire and work with her again anytime and was consistently impressed by her work ethic and determination to get things done right. Margarita knows well a number of functional areas in HR including Comp&Ben, International Contracting, Employment, Employee Relations, Compliance, Immigration Processes with special regards to visas, and others. She is a true HR Professional that knows her stuff.
Paul Ashcraft
This letter of recommendation is based on my professional and personal association with Margarita Villagrán over the past year. I have found Margarita to be honest and straightforward in her approach to her work, business, and family. She has demonstrated a high degree of loyalty and trustworthiness to her work and her associates and has carried out her obligations with vigor and resolve. Margarita Villagrán is a skilled professional and quickly gains the confidence of her peers. This leads me to believe that she would do the same with her leadership capabilities with other companies. In summary, I have found Margarita Villagrán to be an equable person with above average common sense, good humor and a comfortable amount of self-confidence. She will be a committed and competent worker and I believe she would be a very valuable asset to any company in need of a high quality and dedicated leader.
