McMillen Promoted To Director Of Sales Development
November 9, 2007 Parsippany, NJ – Today, SetFocus announced the
promotion of Vivian McMillen to Director of Sales Development. She will be
responsible for hiring and training all Master’s Program admissions
representatives.
McMillen joined SetFocus in June 2006 as a part-time admissions representative.
She later moved into a full time position and was shortly promoted to Senior
Admissions Specialist, having helped nearly 65 IT professionals revamp their
careers.
“With our upcoming Partner Program Launch in January and the SharePoint Masters
Program in February, it’s clear that we will need a larger staff to accommodate
the future interest and activity. We selected Vivian McMillen for this new role
based on her stellar performance as an Admissions Specialist, but also because
she has excelled as a teacher for new staff. She has been a constant source of
energy and optimism, and has gradually become a go-to staff member for
questions and information. This new role is a critically important piece of the
2008 puzzle,” says Jon Lefkowitz, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
It is no coincidence that McMillen is a natural mentor. Prior to SetFocus,
McMillen was an elementary school teacher in Baltimore County, MD. She received
her bachelor’s degree from Towson University in elementary education and later
received her master’s degree in special education from Johns Hopkins
University.
McMillen is excited to get back to her educational roots and has many goals for
her new position. “As a company that is innovative and visionary, we have found
an important niche in the lives and careers of IT professionals. IT
professionals who are looking for jobs and employers who need positions filled
by skilled candidates. Thus our motto, Bridging the Gap between Talent and
Opportunity. More demand also requires more growth on our part. 2008 is going
to be very important year for SetFocus. My goal is to help grow our sales
department with individuals who love their jobs and love to make a difference
in the lives of their students.”
