Like many others, Corey Burns fell into HR & Talent Acquisition by accident. He got his first taste of Recruiting at a Fortune 500 company, where he quickly found his niche. Fast forward, Corey is now the Director of Recruiting & Development at General RV Center, a parent company comprised of 3 organizations in the Recreational Vehicle industry, and has led talent initiatives that have contributed to more than 300% growth in both employee count and revenues.
He formed the company’s Recruiting & Development division in 2013, as the company entered a hyper-growth stage, and he now leads all recruiting, learning, and organizational development strategies. Corey’s approach begins with building trust-based relationships, which lead to talent solutions that support the four pillars of the company’s talent strategy: Attract, Develop, Retain, Grow.
