Description

<p>Matt Stocker is an industry-leading talent acquisition professional in the sports industry leading employee &nbsp;recruitment for one of the most exciting brands in the world.</p> <p>Don't know a lot about FC Cincinnati? That's okay...outside of the sports business industry, many don't. But inside the walls of sports jobs we widely recognize "FCC" as a growing, exciting, and ground-breaking brand in the industry. FC Cincinnati is playing the role of "innovator" and "disruptor" inside of how teams operate as a people-driven business.</p> <p>Matt tells a wonderfully detailed story of how he left the world of sales for the NHL's Florida Panthers to work in the department of employee endeavors. After 4 years of grueling and hard-core sales for the Southern-most hockey team in the NHL, Matt converted from the Panthers sales team to human resources.</p> <p>This is a fairly rare transition in the industry and shows the beautiful story of somebody BREAKING INTO the industry, then finding their best use of their skills in another department.</p> <p>In early 2021, Matt made the move over to FC Cincinnati to play a larger role in their talent acquisition efforts, hiring over 400+ people as the brand expanded.</p>
