Lead Talent Acquisition Business Partner, Trauma and Extremities Division | United States
Recruiting focus area: I recruit for Foot and Ankle, Trauma and Upper Extremities (Orthopaedic) Sales roles in our Trauma and Extremities Division.
Candidate tip: Treat your interview as if it's your first sale. Be confident and articulate in selling your skills as the best fit for the role!
Best part about working at Stryker: The people. I’m constantly surrounded by the most compassionate, hard-working, authentic individuals who inspire me to grow and do my best every single day.

Lead Talent Acquisition Business Partner, Spine Division | United States
Recruiting focus areas: I recruit Sales Representatives, Associate Sales Representatives and Clinical Specialists in Stryker's Spine Division covering Core Spine and Spine Enabling Technologies.
Candidate tip: Do your research and show up fully prepared, even in the first initial recruiter screen! At the end of the day, each division operates very differently, and you may find in your research that there is a better fit for you within our organization. Remember, your day-to-day revolves around the products you represent and lifestyle of the division you choose. Why not be certain this is the division or position for you when you apply?
Best part about working for Stryker: I am sure you will hear this multiple times, but the culture! I received advice when I was younger: "If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room." I took that to heart and decided I wanted to be around people who are smart, talented, and hardworking – even more than the standard I set for myself. That is what I have here at Stryker. It motivates me each day and makes me better to be surrounded by people that I look up to and admire! (Added bonus: I have found a company full of dog lovers, like myself!)
Reason you love recruiting for sales at Stryker: Personally, I have always been results driven, so naturally I love being able to talk to talented people each day that are hardworking, gritty and love to win. I can totally relate to this mindset, and it makes my job fun! I also really enjoy partnering with all of my amazing Sales and Clinical Leaders in Spine to find top talent to join their team. It brings me great satisfaction and I just love seeing those individuals thrive in their roles months after they start the job!
Fun fact: I once helped a manager hire two people at two separate times that ended up becoming the best of friends! If you are looking for a job at Stryker (and possibly even a best friend), I am the matchmaker for you!
Talent Acquisition Manager, Joint Replacement Division | United States
Recruiting focus area: I manage a team of recruiters responsible for identifying talent for our Joint Replacement Division including our Mako Sales Business Unit for North America
Candidate tip: Prepare, do your homework and be yourself! Learn a little about the people you're interviewing with and Stryker. Not only will this help you crush the interview, it will also reinforce the reasons you're interested in joining the company and help you make a more informed decision. Let your personality shine throughout the interview process. Sure, you have examples of your past experiences and how they relate to the role you're going for, but your personality is just as important. Connecting with your potential manager and team in an authentic way will help ensure the best fit!
Best part about working at Stryker: The culture and people. The extremely talented people drive the amazing culture. We work hard and accomplish some big things and we have fun doing it, which is very important!
Reason you love recruiting for sales at Stryker: Our sales representatives propel Stryker toward a successful future by driving our mission in the field with our surgeons, clients and patients. We get to have a direct impact on bringing in the best and brightest to make that possible.
Fun fact: My wife is the beneficiary of a Stryker total hip replacement!
