Hi! I'm Jenn –
Not your
typical
recruiter.

Jenn Nguyen - People Operations & Startup Consultant

About Me

I am a people operations consultant, recruiter, and C-suite advisor for early-stage startups (or anyone who needs to add headcount quickly).

I help CEOs and founders envision, strategize, and execute what is often the very first iteration of their People & Talent function.

Business leaders turn to me to lay the groundwork for long-term scalability and success—from broad assessments of their needs, risks and opportunities, to hiring, employee compensation, culture, mental health, DEI, and company brand—I put the right structures and systems in place for success.

I have earned a reputation for work ethic, grit, and a deep commitment to culture and values.

I’m known for working fast, establishing relationships built on trust, and for going outside the traditional channels to discover top talent. I hit the ground running with a high degree of autonomy. And I execute in a way that is repeatable and scalable, allowing me to seamlessly hand off the reigns to an internal leader when the time comes.

Startup teams turn to me for:

Creating a hiring brand with care and intention. My work includes thoughtful attention to the company brand and candidate experience.

Hiring everyone from entry-level and customer service to the C-suite team—across all industries, all functional areas of expertise.

Honest and candid evaluations of where they are and what they need to do to achieve their people and talent goals.

Thinking creatively about improving the People experience, including mental health check-ins, diversity and inclusion, and feedback loops.

Creating structure, process and systems. I create efficiency from scratch and design my systems for easy and scalable training.

Attention to both the bird’s eye vision and the in-the-weeds details of what it takes to get things done in people operations.

I am an entrepreneur and survivor at heart—

I have been working and on my own since age 14. My early-career sales, management, and startup experience lent itself naturally to recruiting and HR. After starting my own consulting business in 2016, I have never looked back.

Outside of work, I enjoy exploring Los Angeles, traveling to beaches, food and watching a Cowboys game with family and friends.

I am heavily involved in the South Bay based charity, Walk with Sally.

We support children impacted by cancer by providing care-centered one-to-one fellowships and additional programs and services to uplift the family unit and lessen the burden of cancer.
