Employee Spotlight – Monique Barker
Meet Monique Barker - Recruiter
Tell us a little about yourself….
I was born and raised in NYC. Started my career path in finance but always knew I wanted a career assisting people which led me to Marcum Search. I have been here for 3 1/2 years.
How has your career grown since starting at Marcum Search?
Marcum Search helped me utilize my finance experience to be successful in recruiting. By combining both skillsets I’ve been able to produce better results. I’m thankful for the great support system provided by my colleagues and relationships I’ve built both internally and externally.
My favorite quote is…

Three words to describe myself…
Loyal, Compassionate, Outgoing.
My perfect day is…
A day full of pampering myself, going to the spa and ending the night with dinner at one of my favorite restaurants.
Advice for my 16 year old self…
BE YOURSELF, because people who matter don’t mind and people who mind don’t matter
Number 1 on my bucket list…

MY PARENTS, because of their endless optimism encouragement and faith in me.
