Her Story
About Lynn
Lynn Berg serves as an Advanced Technology Recruiter for a construction company, where she focuses on hiring national travelers for hard-to-fill roles. With 16 years in the field, she reviews candidates, conducts interviews, manages offer negotiations, and assists with onboarding, often helping with housing and other needs for project-based work across locations like North Dakota and Texas. Her career began with nearly 10 years as a call center lead training employees, followed by nearly 10 years in bank recruiting, before moving into construction talent acquisition at McGough nine months ago. Despite having only a high school education after leaving college to raise her son as a single mother, Berg has thrived through determination. She takes pride in the growth of her role and the life-changing impact of placing candidates, including one formerly homeless individual who became a top performer. Outside her professional duties, she volunteers her time offering resume writing and reviews, mock interviewing classes, and support through partnerships with the Salvation Army and local Workforce Centers to help those in need.
