“Sarah will be remembered as one of the most impactful recruiting leaders at Tesla. While many have contributed to the organization, Sarah’s story is uniquely dynamic. She supported her division from its inception, leading her team in the creation of many key roles. Sarah was instrumental in the legendary START Technician training program, Tech Trainee, and Pathway to START programs; Tesla’s innovative response to the national shortage of automotive technicians. Initially, Sarah managed a tremendous amount of responsibility as an individual contributor. She then transitioned seamlessly into a managerial role, where she successfully grew her team. Her accomplishments are numerous, but what sets her apart is her intelligence, expertise, and ability to hold her team accountable. Sarah was ready to be a manager long before she had the title, demonstrating exceptional leadership skills. Sarah’s ability to command an organization, both in terms of recruiters and the clients they support, is unparalleled. Her experience speaks for itself, and she remains one of the most talented individuals I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Her impact on Tesla’s recruiting efforts is profound, and her contributions will be felt for years to come.”
