Meet Your Recruiter
Brandon Barrett, MBA
Recruiting Manager
Brandon was born and raised in Newport Beach not far from our Orange County offices. He has both his BS degree in Finance and his MBA from Chapman University. Brandon loves working with people and has always been a skilled networker, so when the opportunity to work in a sales position in the staffing industry presented itself, he jumped on it. Brandon is an excellent cook and enjoys preparing meals for his family; Tuesday’s are always reserved for taco night. What time should we be over on Tuesday?
If Brandon had a free day he would snowboard for a few hours in the morning, then hustle back down to the ocean for a sunset swim, grab some In-N-Out on the way home and settle in for a movie with his family.
