Over the past few months, Georgia State University - J. Mack Robinson College of Business students were challenged with developing a marketing and talent acquisition strategy to bolster Waffle House’s recruiting methods for today's dynamic workforce. Collaborating through the Panthers Accelerated Career Experience (PACE) program, they worked closely with our very own Recruiting Director Iris Jackson, Senior Vice President Marcus Harris, Region Managers Ricardo Dyall and Alireza (Al) Mamaghani, and Unit Manager Shannon Newell. Their final presentation showcased their exceptional leadership potential as they provided invaluable insights into refining recruiting techniques tailored to the demands of the modern workforce. Thank you and congratulations to the talented students and future leaders at #GSU! 👏 #WHCareers #AmericasPlaceToWork #GeorgiaStateUniversity #FutureLeaders #Recruiting
