LaSalle Network

After three years as a benefits counselor at a private provider of early education and childcare in Chicago, Lunye’s department was relocated out of state, and she found herself looking for her next career. After learning about Lunye’s previous experience and future career goals, LaSalle presented her to our client, a Chicago-based non-profit serving the mentally ill, for an open-ended contract benefits specialist role.

Within three days, Lunye was offered the job. This new opportunity provided flexible hours that allowed Lunye to continue to pursue her MBA in the evenings. In addition, this new role allowed Lunye to work in an industry she is truly passionate about, while also exposing her to new areas of HR and helping her grow professionally.
