AccelOne is proud to announce that Lubo Popov will be joining the team as the recruiting director for our US branch. A veteran of the IT recruitment industry with glowing recommendations from across the business sector, Lubo will be bringing his keen eye for talent, commensurate people skills, and intimate knowledge of the tech sector to enrich our US-Argentina nearshore talent pool.
Lubo’s career in staffing started over 20 years ago after he graduated from the University of Santa Barbara. The young go-getter received a call out of the blue asking if he was interested in a career in staffing. Never one to let an opportunity go to waste, Lubo enthusiastically accepted, despite not having any idea of the staffing industry at the time. Clearly, one talented recruiter can recognize another’s potential, as Lubo went on to build a stellar career connecting business and individuals.
Over the next couple of decades, Lubo would build his career in IT staffing, putting in fourteen combined years as a Senior Recruiter at TEKsystems and Crescent Solutions in the Orange County area before joining Clarity Technology Partners, where he would eventually become the company’s Director of Recruiting. Although all these companies had their differences in size and culture, Lubo always enjoyed the sense of accomplishment that comes with helping people find a fulfilling job that makes the most of their skills. Both employees and companies have praised his straightforward and genuine approach. The following are just a couple of testimonials from people he has worked with:
“I had been in IT for over 20 years and without a doubt, I can say that Lubo is one of the best recruiters that I had ever worked with. Not only is he very effective in getting results, but he also listens to your needs and is able to address any concerns quickly and efficiently.” – Former Client.
“His biggest strengths are his committed relationships with both candidates and clients, as well as, his communication skills and follow-up. I strongly believe this is attributed to Lubo’s success year after year.” – Former Colleague
An Expert Connector for Nearshore Collaboration
The addition of Lubo to the AccelOne family is so exciting for us because of our US/Nearshore model and the wide talent pool it draws from. AccelOne offers a mixed teams approach where the client can choose to have, for example, developers and engineers in Buenos Aires, the project manager and the UX designer in the US, or any other combination that suits their needs.
To make the most of this flexible model, we needed a recruiter with top-tier skills in selecting the best talent, nurturing them in their role, and having an eye for the synergy between different people’s abilities and personal traits. And in our new Director of Recruiting, we are thrilled to say that we have found just the right person. Welcome aboard, Lubo!
