Sarah Shepard

Program Lead

 

What are your main roles / responsibilities?

Duel-desk sales and recruitment for the Placers Professional Team.

 

What is your background?

After going to the University of Delaware to pursue my B.A. in Psychology, I moved on to work as an Administrative Coordinator for the Delaware Homestay Program placing foreign exchange students in host-homes throughout the Tri-state area. I joined Placers in 2017 and have been a part of the team ever since!

 

What’s your favorite part about being part of the Placers team?

I have loved helping both candidates and clients find the right fit for their needs. Placers also has a very unique cultural environment where we all work together to achieve results and have fun doing it.

 

What is your favorite quote?

“People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. You may love and never be loved in return. Love anyway. In the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”

– Mother Teresa

 

What was your dream job when you were a kid?

I wanted to be a trophy wife. It didn’t work out.
