Maria S.

Maria is a Sales Expert at HyperHired, based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with 7 years of experience across recruiting, account management, and operations. In recruiting she has achieved 30 hires in a single week and consistently maintains a hire rate above 40%. Earlier in her career she managed operations for a natural foods company — overseeing merchandising teams, 30+ simultaneous client accounts, and field performance — and helped launch Elf on the Shelf in the Central American market, contributing to the brand’s early growth in Panama, where it has since become a holiday staple.

At HyperHired she manages the full-cycle recruiting process for client accounts — sourcing, screening, and scheduling candidates while partnering with hiring managers to hit their hiring goals — across home improvement, roofing, insurance, high-ticket, and call center sales.

Her biggest strength is connecting with people: she makes candidates comfortable enough to have honest conversations, which surfaces their real motivations and matches them with roles where they’re most likely to succeed — while clients value her consistently high-quality candidates and proactive communication. Her philosophy: great recruiting means understanding both the client’s needs and the candidate’s motivations, so the match succeeds long after the offer is accepted. Originally from Venezuela, Maria loves discovering new restaurants, traveling, reading, trying new fitness classes, and spending time with friends, family, and her dog Olive.
