Meet Your Recruiter
Araceli Mercer
Account Manager
Hey there!
I’m Araceli, and my leap into recruiting was one of those “meant to be” moments—totally unexpected, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! I quickly found my passion in connecting people with their dream jobs, and now I’m here to do the same for you!
I was born and raised in Milwaukee and earned my degree from the University of Southern California. After graduating, I made the decision to trade in the Sunshine State to return to the land of cheese to help raise my two younger siblings. My experience ranges from local to national recruiting which has allowed me to build a strong network of connections and opportunities.
A bit more about me: I’m the oldest of three siblings, with an 11-year gap, so helping others is who I am. I’m also a huge animal lover and proud cat mom to a tuxedo kitty named Romeo.
