Hi everyone!

Happy almost Friday!

My name is Nina Feliciano, Talent Acquisition Operations Lead for the Northeast with the Confluent Health family. I work remotely out of New York and recruit Clinic Directors, Physical Therapists (including Peds!), Occupational Therapists (Hand + Peds too!) across NY, CT, MA, and MD.

I’ve used LinkedIn Recruiter and LinkedIn Learning for over 8 years

 Excited to connect, learn from this amazing group, and be part of this new pilot platform!

Hello!

My name is Rainah Collado, and I am a Talent Acquisition Partner with Rady Children’s Hospital-San Diego.  I have been in Talent Acquisition for 20+ years, primarily in the healthcare industry and in nurse recruiting.  I love what I do!

For the past several years, I have been blessed to call beautiful, sunny San Diego as Home. f I enjoy travelling with my family and hope to take more time soon, to visit many more places within the U.S. and other countries. 

My goal is to learn more about the Clinical Pilot Program and see how it can enhance the work I do to recruit the best and brightest into our organization.  Looking forward as well, to learning from others that are part of the program.  

 Glad to be part of the growing community and to introduce myself here!
 

I am Sai Amrith a Talent Acquisition Partner| TA Ambassador at Lytx, Inc. leading hiring and employer branding efforts from Bangalore – the Silicon Valley of India, as we scale and re-establish Lytx’s presence in the Indian market.

With close to 9 years in Tech Talent Advisory, I am passionate about aligning business needs with market data and talent dynamics and more so, helping build high impact teams.

At Lytx, we are growing rapidly, stepping into markets we have not tapped before, and innovating uniquely based on local risk factors and ground realities. Our products are purpose built to adapt and what stands out is how ‘Lytx’ sounds like 'Analytics’, which directly reflects our data driven mindset.

We are on a bold mission to make roads safer and save lives, with video telematics at the core. To do this, we are hiring hungry, humble, and capable people who thrive in a culture of ownership, agility, and collaboration.

🫱🏼‍🫲🏽 DEI&B is not just a checklist for us, it is embedded in how we hire, how we lead, and how we build trust with every stakeholder.

We lean heavily on LinkedIn Recruiter and Talent Insights to back our decisions with market intelligence, giving us a sharper edge while scaling globally.

One niche space I am exploring deeper is Telematics, a rapidly rising industry with little exclusive segmentation on LinkedIn yet. If it sits under a broader tag, I am curious to connect with folks tracking trends, skills, and hiring movements in this space.

Excited to be part of this forward-thinking community and share the story we are scripting from the Lytx India journey where branding, technology, and talent come together to shape something meaningful.

Hey everyone,

I’m Rick Chen, a Recruitment Marketing Specialist at WakeMed Health and Hospitals based in Raleigh, North Carolina. I’ve been in the Recruiting Marketing/Employer Branding space for over a decade, but this is my first stint in the healthcare space. I’m excited to help upskill our Talent Acquisition team on LinkedIn usage and get more value from our partnership with LinkedIn. My previous role was at Indeed, where LinkedIn prevented us from having a corporate partnership, so I’m about 7 years behind on my last extensive usage of LinkedIn Recruiter.

Hello LinkedIn!

My name is Rhonda Wortham, and I’m a Senior Recruitment Consultant at OhioHealth, where I’ve proudly been for the past 11 years. With over 20 years of experience in recruitment, I’ve had the opportunity to support a wide range of roles — from engineering and global warehouse operations to, most recently, focusing on hard-to-fill and specialty nursing positions.

Recruiting isn’t just a job for me — it’s a chance to be part of someone’s journey. There’s real fulfillment in helping people take the next step in their careers and watching their goals come to life.

I’m based in the beautiful Hocking Hills area of southern Ohio, and I’m a longtime LinkedIn user who’s always been eager to grow and evolve in this space.

Lately, I’ve been especially interested in how AI is shaping the future of sourcing and talent acquisition, and I’m looking forward to connecting, sharing, and learning from others who are just as passionate about recruitment and innovation.

Let’s connect and collaborate!
