Laughing Away the Rain: Meet our recruiter Quincy Corneille

Meet Quincy Corneille , our tech talent acquisition specialist hailing from the vibrant city of Utrecht. With a perpetual smile on his face, Quincy is the life of the party, always up for a good time. He's been spreading joy and laughter around the office for the past year, making him the go-to guy for lifting spirits.

Quincy's approach to life is nothing short of a delightful adventure, navigating it with an open mind. When asked about his plans for the upcoming festive holidays, he exclaims, "Life is good! I don’t have plans yet; I let them unfold organically." His carefree attitude resonates not only in his approach to leisure but also mirrors his laid-back demeanor at both work and play.

Outside the office walls, Quincy's interests are as diverse as his personality—a gym enthusiast, a bar explorer ticking off drinks from the menu, a part-time music maker, and a bona fide binge-watcher of series and movies.

Tribe28 became Quincy's professional home thanks to his cousin Julian Feytes , a former recruiter at Tribe28 . Since October 2022, Quincy has been reveling in his role, describing it as "a pretty cool job" involving connecting people and helping them find their perfect match.

While every successful placement is a triumph, Quincy acknowledges the uniqueness of his first victory, giving a shoutout to Shaun Cromie . However, he admits that sourcing for challenging vacancies is the real battleground, requiring constant self-motivation.

Reflecting on his growth, Quincy confessed to starting with zero recruitment and IT knowledge. "I'm still not as technically savvy as the candidates, but my recruiting skills are getting up there!" he declared proudly. To hone his craft, Quincy had a simple yet effective strategy: "Asking questions, and keep asking questions." Training sessions have also proven invaluable in providing interesting insights.

Tribe28's culture emerged as a character in Quincy's story—a vibrant tapestry where authenticity was not just encouraged but celebrated. "I like the vibe; you can be yourself. Everybody has got humor, and laughing together keeps the rain away (not really, but you know what I mean)!" Quincy reveled in the unique culture that contributed significantly to his job satisfaction, admitting with a grin, "I always look forward to going to the office. I have never said that about any job I've had before. Motivation is a crucial factor."

And to cap it off, the soundtrack of Quincy's successful candidate placements? None other than 'X gon give it to ya!

And for those aspiring to break into the IT industry, Quincy has a succinct piece of advice: "Join the Tribe! ;)"
