TalentDrive Leverages Stay-at-Home Mom’s Professional Expertise for Online Recruiting Service

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TalentDrive, an innovative online resume sourcing company, is leveraging the professional expertise of career women-turned-stay-at-home moms to review and analyze resumes from the comforts of their home.

TalentDrive is the first company with the capability to pull resumes from more than 40,000 Web-based locations – including niche job boards, local community Web sites, social networking sites, university Web sites, etc, - combined with experienced industry analysts who provide objective, eyes-on review of resumes. TalentDrive’s industry analysts are comprised of close to 75 stay-at-home moms with over 10 years of industry experience within Sales, Manufacturing and Distribution, Information Technology, Finance/Accounting, and R&D/Engineering.

“TalentDrive gives me the flexibility I need to apply my professional skills while staying home to raise my family,” said Lisa Cervieri an 18-year veteran of the financial services industry. “Not to mention, it’s a great concept for recruiting. I would have benefited greatly from TalentDrive’s services back when I was a hiring manager.”

Cervieri oversaw Bank of America’s nationwide institutional client service group aimed at midsize to large corporations and retirement plan sponsors. For a decade she had hiring authority for their nationwide network of client managers. She has been out of the workforce since 2003 caring for two young children and volunteering. She recently dipped her toe back into the industry with TalentDrive, which depends on intuitive resume reviews by professionals – professionals like Cervieri.

“TalentDrive has given me a great start back into the workforce, at my own pace, and I feel like it gives me some real insight into how employers’ needs are changing,” said Cervieri.

Working with sequencing and stay-at-home moms isn’t new to TalentDrive’s CEO, Sean Bisceglia. A pioneer in finding talent in such unobvious places, he first tapped into the sequencing mom talent pool while he was CEO of CPRi, a marketing staffing firm acquired by Aquent in 2005.

“These talented mothers – our industry analysts – are a tremendous source of expertise for TalentDrive,” said Bisceglia. “They have an average of 10 years of experience as hiring managers in the industries we focus on, and have the intuition and experience to read between the lines of a resume to find the most suitable candidates for our clients.”

Cervieri finds it very natural to review the resumes to determine the match to the client’s needs and wishes. She works on her own schedule, during nap times and in the evenings. The review helps Cervieri stay current with the financial industry, and she can add more projects as her household schedule becomes more predictable.
