Staffing Manager at the American Medical Association

About Me

Harvey's biographer wrote this, which is why it's in "third person."Harvey Daniels has been involved with the field of Human Resources and Recruitment for a long time. When the biographer asked him to be more specific, he just twitched, held his head steady by holding his neck, and said "just long, ok?" However, his biographer's exceptional investigative skills revealed that his involvement in the field has been since the 70's. He received his Bachelor's degree from Roosevelt University and his MBA from DePaul University, both in Human Resource Management He has taught in the MBA program as well (part-time, after work). In addition, he is very active with Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University, where he conducts interviewing counseling sessions.Harvey has worked for the Federal Reserve and IBM, and is currently the Staffing Manager at the American Medical Association where he has been since 1996. He says that while he's been very fortunate to work for quality employers, the AMA is exceptional with outstanding opportunities and the greatest co-workers (so who needs to be reminded that he's in recruitment, right?).Harvey has been involved with the Technical Recruiters Network since it's beginning in 1985, and has worked tirelessly with his colleagues on the Board and others who have supported the mission and each other to build and maintain a supportive "community" dedicated to helping members succeed. He, along with the Board, has also been instrumental in the "startup" of other TRN organizations across the country, and most notably, with forming the Global Technical Recruiters Network, chartered in 2002 as a "unity facilitator" of TRN's across the world.When he's not networking, he's sleeping. However, he does find time to work out every day, and in the summer he can be seen most mornings along the Chicago lakefront on his blades (he says he prefers the lakefront because it's so crowded and it helps him to stop more effectively). He's also a "self-proclaimed" rock star, playing bass and singing in the rock band Full Circle (not yet seen on VH-1, but just keep watching, he says).
