Andrea Brenholz
CEO / President
As CEO/President of ATR International, I am proud to be the face of the next generation of the staffing world.
My career with ATR began in 2007, and ever since my responsibilities, expertise, and industry insight have steadily increased. Each day, I strive to keep ATR ahead of the curve by adopting new and emerging technologies that promise to improve ATR, businesses seeking talent, and skilled professionals. All these efforts lead to the continuous fulfillment of ATR’s purpose of making the world a better place, one job at a time.
Outside of my role as head of ATR, I am deeply committed to supporting my community in meaningful ways. I proudly serve on several boards, including the American Staffing Association, California Staffing and Recruiting Professionals, the National Board for Latinx Professionals, the Women of Color in Staffing, and First Tee Silicon Valley, where I help inspire and empower others to achieve their full potential.
As a mentor and advocate for women and minorities pursuing excellence in the staffing industry, I was honored to be named to Staffing Industry Analysts’ 2024 Global Power 150 – Women in Staffing list. Additionally, my efforts to foster diversity and innovation in leadership have earned recognition such as the HITEC 100 Award, the Enterprising Women of the Year Award, and a spot on Silicon Valley Business Journal’s 40 Under 40 list. I also enjoy encouraging transformative conversations as the host of Unicorn in the Boardroom, a podcast dedicated to inspiring minority groups to excel and break barriers.
As CEO/President of ATR, I also aim to increase awareness of STEM subjects to the area’s girls and young women, and to give back to the community that serves as ATR’s home. I have always been passionate about philanthropy, and it is part of my role to encourage my team to use ATR’s Volunteering Time Off policy to help make a positive impact on all those we meet at ATR and beyond.
ADVICE:
Presentation is everything. Be prepared for the interview, dress well, and have a great resume that explains what you do and isn’t too long. I would stress to hiring managers that communication is key and the more you tell us, the better we can help you find the right candidate.
