Kurt Jansen

Prior to becoming our newest Technical Recruiter, Kurt Jansen was both a basketball player and a coach. In fact, Kurt played college ball for Lakeland University before spending six years coaching at both the high school and collegiate levels. It wasn’t until recently that he made a career change, and while his team was no doubt sad to see him go, we find ourselves extremely lucky to have him!

Welcome, everyone. We hope that you all are doing well. Today, it gives us great pleasure to introduce Kurt Jansen, the newest member of our Recruiting team in Wisconsin.

In an effort to help you get to know Kurt a little better, we asked him three questions and offered his responses to each below. Thanks in advance for taking the time, and Kurt, welcome to the family. We are so excited to have you!

Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

I graduated and played college basketball at Lakeland University in 2015 with a degree in Exercise Science and Sport Studies. After graduation, I spent the next six years coaching high school and college basketball.

I graduated with a Master’s degree in 2017 in Athletic Administration and Coaching, but I just recently I made a big career change and moved into the recruiting field. I spent the last four months at ABR Employment Services before starting at STS Technical Services.

What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

I am a huge fan of watching sports. But when I am not doing that, I love playing golf, playing with my dog, fixing up my house and relaxing with friends and family.

If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

Aquaman: I would like to be able to swim and see all the amazing things underwater!

Sachi Greene

Denver, CO., July 27, 2021 – Sachi Greene, SVP of Operations for STS Technical Services (STS), was recently named to Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) 40-under-40 list for 2021.

As one of the youngest members of STS’ executive team, Greene has spent the past eighteen months leading a company-wide effort to increase the organization’s use of technology and automation; a need driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and the team’s decision to shift to a fully-remote workforce.

“The pandemic has made this year extremely challenging, so to be be recognized by SIA for the work that I have been doing is an amazing feeling,” states Greene. “But this honor isn’t mine alone. My team is the primary reason I’m here today. Without their dedication and hard work, we wouldn’t be bouncing back as quickly as we are, so let me take a quick moment to thank each of them for their exceptional effort, kindness and support. I genuinely appreciate each of you and cannot thank you all enough.”

STS Technical Services specializes in providing workforce management solutions to clients across the aerospace, industrial, manufacturing and defense industries. And when the pandemic hit, the team made a decision to move it’s entire workforce out of four main U.S.-based offices and into fully-remote work environments. “The decision was easy for us to make. We had to keep our people safe. But to shift a workforce of 100+ into remote-work-only mode was a daunting task. I am proud to say, however, that everything has worked out really well. In fact, over the past year and a half, my team and I have implemented a variety of workflow automations and improvements that allow our workforce to maximize its efficiency, regardless of where our people login from,” says Greene.

“While the setbacks we experienced as a company due to the global pandemic were challenging, emerging from the downturn and into one of the tightest labor markets we have ever seen has made it even more important that our organization continues to be creative in its approach,” sites Greene. “Making sure that STS Technical Services is poised to execute on both its internal hiring needs and external client priorities right now is crucial to our company’s long-term success. That being said, we’ll continue to embrace the challenges as they come while remaining forever adaptable and open to change.”

Brooke Rankin

We love welcoming new faces to the STS Technical Services’ family, and today our team has the distinct pleasure of welcoming Brooke Rankin, our newest Technical Recruiter.

Not only is Brooke a delightful person to work with, she’s a fantastic mother, a kind soul and an extremely hard worker.

In an effort to help you all get to know Brooke a little better, our marketing team asked her three questions, and her responses to each are below.

Thanks so much for taking the time, and welcome to the family, Brooke. We are really excited to have you!

Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

I have an Associate’s degree in Human Resources Management and have completed a full-cycle recruiting internship. My past few years have been spent working in finance, and I’m happy that I made the transition to Recruiter.

What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

I have a toddler so she takes up the bulk of my free time. We like to play in our backyard and go to the park. I enjoy traveling when I have the chance. In fact, I recently visited New York City and am looking forward to vacationing in Hawaii in November.

If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

I would be Dr. Strange because he protects the earth from mythical and magical creatures. Truthfully, I am not a huge superhero fan, but I do appreciate Marvel over DC Comics.

Welcoming Tina Malm to the STS Technical Services’ Family

Tina Malm

Have any of you ever seen a movie called “The Hustler?” How about its long-awaited sequel, “The Color of Money?” Both are fantastic films where Paul Newman plays a character by the name of “Fast” Eddie Felson; a pool shark who works his way from billiard room to billiard room ready to empty the pockets of anyone who dares challenge him.

And while both movies are amazing, the story of “Fast Eddie” pals in comparison to the real life story of Tina Malm, our newest Recruiter based out of Severn, Maryland.

You see, Tina is not only an amazing Recruiter, she’s also a professional pool player who is currently ranked Top 25 in the country! With that in mind, if you happen to bump into Tina at a work event, don’t ever challenge her to a game of pool unless you’re willing to lose… and lose big. Tina is shark on the tables, and it’s that same killer mentality that has helped her thrive in her new career with STS Technical Services.

Let’s take a minute to get to know Tina a little bit better, shall we? Check out our quick Q&A below.

Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

I’ve been a Recruiter both on the agency side and the corporate side; most recently for a government contractor in the D.C. area. There, I was in charge of staffing agency relationships and hiring cleared individuals.

I graduated from Penn State with a degree in Organizational Leadership and a minor in Labor & Employment Relations. I also have my PHR (Professional of Human Resources) certification (the hardest final exam I’ve ever taken).

My favorite part of recruiting is extending the offer and really getting to know the candidates with whom I work.

What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

I’ve been lucky to have traveled almost everywhere in the United States playing competitive, professional-level pool (I am currently ranked in the top 25 in the US). I love how the game challenges, delights and frustrates me, and yet it still teaches me so much.

I also love the smell of ocean air, dinner with friends, and movie/home time with my husband and daughter.

If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

With the ability to heal other people, eradicate plagues and bring people back from the dead, I would choose the Scarlet Witch. None of the negatives attributes she possesses, only the positives, of course! How amazing would it be to bring back Albert Einstein and hear his commentary and opinions about modern scientific progress? How funny would it be to hear George Carlin comment about the political and social occurrences of the last 5 years? Beyond that, being able to heal people and make a difference would be next-level amazing!

Who is Keith Russo?

The answer is to this all intriguing question is complex. Keith is man of many layers. Some will say that his depth is due, in part, to his Brooklyn upbringing. Others will say that his time in Los Angeles working in the showbiz industry is what makes him so intriguing. I say that Keith is just an incredible guy with an incredibly cool story; one that we are going to learn a little more about right now.

Welcome, everyone. Today it gives me great pleasure to introduce Keith Russo, our newest Technical Recruiter in Jensen Beach, Florida. And while Keith isn’t necessarily new to STS Technical Services, he did just return to us after some time away, and we would like to help you all get to know Keith just a little bit better. To that end, we recently asked Keith three questions, and his answers to those questions are provided below.

Thanks in advance for taking the time, and Keith, welcome back, my man. It’s so nice to have you!

Question 1: Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

I’m originally from Brooklyn, New York and moved to Los Angeles when I was 23.  After dabbling in showbiz and working around town at clubs like the Troubadour and the Whisky a Go Go, I finally started an aviation career in 2005 with Jetblue Airways.  I was with Jetblue for 12 years, 10 as a supervisor, until I relocated to sunny Florida in 2018.  I began recruiting with STS the moment I landed, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Questions 2: What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

I love to travel, but being the dad of a 4-year old (and Covid hitting) has put a damper on any recent travel plans.  These days I spend as much time as I can with my son. I enjoy taking him to baseball games (he can already tell you the starting lineup of the Yankees) and to Disney as much as possible.  If I do get some free time for myself, I like to act in and direct community theatre here in the area.  I also enjoy live music and have seen Bruce Springsteen and Pearl Jam combined around 100 times. I’ve been looking forward to show #101 for quite a while now (same with us, Keith. Same with us.).

Question 3: If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

Luke Skywalker. I mean, he blew up the Death Star and defeated Darth Vader. Also, spoiler alert, but did you see the last episode of The Mandalorian? May the force be with you!

Aubrey Krueger

Aubrey Krueger is not only our newest Technical Recruiter in Brookfield, Wisconsin, she is also an incredibly accomplished and well-rounded human being. You see, Aubrey is a bit of a renaissance woman; great at everything she does. She started her career as a first-grade teacher after studying Sociology and Dance at University of Wisconsin (Whitewater). Shortly after graduating, however, she want on to obtain her M.A. degree from Cardinal Stritch University, which ultimately helped her land her first teaching job.  So how did Aubrey end up in Recruiting? That’s a great question. Let’s hear it from the woman, herself. Check out the quick Q&A we did with Aubrey shortly after she joined our team on Monday, May 17th to learn more about her and her incredibly cool story.

Question 1: Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

Proud Alumni of UW Whitewater with a BA of Arts Degree in Sociology and Minor in Dance, as well as, Cardinal Stritch University for my Masters of Arts Program in Teaching. I began my career journey as a 1st grade teacher for several years after graduation. Human Resources and Recruiting found me after many years of teaching. I was offered an exciting opportunity to switch careers and quickly realized that I could utilize the skill set and commonalities I had when I was teacher; so I took the chance…SO glad I did. I began recruiting at a staffing agency for Professional roles and fell in love with the idea of helping others and coaching them in there next career choices. Since then I have been employed as a Corporate Recruiter, and Human Resources Recruiter with a heavy focus on RPO recruiting and implementing HR Practices as it relates to best practices/processes for Hiring and Onboarding employees. I am skilled in Engineering, IT Networking Engineer, Human Resources, Health Care and Accounting roles in various industries.

Questions 2: What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

You will find me running around with my little girl, Sage, hanging out with my husband, Nick, and mastiff dog, Bowser. I spend my weekends hanging out with my family, close friends or extended family. We live in an area surrounded by lakes and love to boat, and are avid wakeboarders and skiers. I am a runner and biker; and enjoy HIIT workouts; anything to stay active as health is important to me. My passion and side hustle is teaching dance for a local studio for High School students which I have been doing for the last 7 years; emphasis in Contemporary and Jazz genre.

Question 3: If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

Wonder Woman. But really, she is a BOSS. I grew up with strong women in my life that demonstrated and instilled confidence/self-worth, humbleness, grace, empathy, empowerment, grit, loyalty and strength through it all. I feel she encompasses all of this and what I strive to be as a mother, sister, daughter, friend and professional.

Gary Lortscher

When most people think of what if means to be cool, guys like Paul Newman, Sean Connery and Steve McQueen come to mind. When I think of what it means to be cool, the first name that pops into my head is Gary Lortscher. Who is Gary Lortscher, you ask? He’s our newest Technical Recruiter in Brookfield, Wisconsin, and he’s also one of the coolest cats you will ever meet.

Gary joined the STS Technical Services’ crew on Monday, May 10th. He comes to us with a wealth of Recruiting experience, an infectious attitude and some serious panache.

If you would like to get to know Gary just a little bit better, check out the quick Q&A we did with him. When you are done, you’ll come to find that Gary is not only the man, professionally speaking, he’s also the type of man men want to emulate and women want to be around. Seriously… Gary is the cooler than a bowl of ice cream, and we are so excited to have him on our team!

Question 1: Tell us a little about your professional background, education and / or experience?

My name is Gary Lortscher, and I have about 15 years of direct hire and staff augmentation recruiting/ placement experience.  I also have a Bachelors of Science Degree from UW Oshkosh where I majored in Political Science. Prior to working in the staffing business, I was a licensed securities Broker/Trader with Strong Investments where I last worked as a Trading Manager.  In my 6 years in the securities business, I did not have a single execution trading error. I’m pretty proud of that.

Questions 2: What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?

I am a big time outdoor enthusiast!  I am an avid hunter and frequent fisherman.  I own a 18 foot Aluminum sport fishing boat fully loaded with Lake Michigan equipment.  I love the art of chasing salmon and trout with locators and electronics.  Some in my family feel that I’m crazy because I am allergic to fish, but I do it for the thrill and adventure of the chase!  Kind of like when I was a young man in college, well… that’s a different story.

Question 3: If you could be any superhero, which superhero would you be and why?

If I could be any superhero, I would be Superman!

I remember the series where he traveled around the rotation of the Earth and was able to go back in time.  Now that would just about open the doors to unlimited imagination to what a person can do!  Couple that with being indestructible, faster than a speeding bullet and able to fly in and out to different Galaxies… yeah, I’d be Superman, for sure.  The imagination is a wonderful thing, I think Einstein said.
