Kristine Shine. Executive Recruiting & Professional Development

Today we’re speaking with Kristine Shine the founder and CEO Shine Talent, an executive recruiting firm specializing in senior level sales and marketing roles.

After years of leading and building growth divisions at both Fortune 500 brands and start-up companies Kristine decided to help innovative companies and top-level talent connect with one another. Her operational expertise in general management, online and offline media, sales, marketing, online product development, budget development and P&L management gives her a unique ability to understand what companies need in order to reach the next level.

Our conversation focuses on how the executive level match-making process works and how people at the top of their careers can continue to grow their personal capital and reinvent themselves.

Topics include:

• Why Kristine became an entrepreneur after 20 years of working at senior levels in business.
• Why expanding Shine Talent’s offerings was always part of the plan and the pandemic didn’t slow things down.
• How to build your own human capital in order to inoculate yourself from ageism
• How to handle the salary conversation when you’re a senior level hire changing careers or when your competition is 10 -15 years younger than you.
• How to think about those job postings on LinkedIn and pursue those opportunities effectively.
• Why practicing asking questions is one of the most important (and often overlooked) parts of your interview preparation.
