Bio
Rianna M. Hill
Hiring for attitude is an exemplary statement for Zak, with the added benefit that he has the skills too, or is willing to learn them and figure them out as he goes. I've been a part of hiring and managing many people over the years, and Zak stands out as one of the best. He shows up with a can-do attitude and is also honest and transparent about workloads, timelines, and expectations. As he is developing as a leader in his new role, he finds a good blend of looking out for his team and helping get goals across the finish line. Not to mention he is always down for a good ol' chat about just about anything! His personality makes him a gem in the workplace. Based on the past year's experience working with Zak, I'd recommend him for anything.

When organizations are seeking strong "cultural fits" for their team, they are looking for someone like Zak. Aside from being a prodigious Media Buyer, Zak is just an amazing human being. Every call he joins he joins with a smile, every conversation he has he is listening, not to wait to assert his next point, but because he is genuinely interested in what the other person is saying. In this new remote world, Zak makes everyone feel like a lifelong friend, and that is a super rare trait for someone as analytical and data driven as your typical Media Buyer. If that wasn't enough, and believe me it could be, Zak is an absolute workhorse. Morning, noon, night, this man will not rest without every item on his to do list crossed off (and that list is long!) He is a dynamo of a teammate, a rock as a friend, and an inspiration as a human being, and I am glad to call him a colleague and honored to call him a friend.
