Following a successful recruiting campaign in its home town, Guaranteed Rate will run the same campaign in Southern California. No experience is needed.
In March,
the Chicago-based company debuted its Liftoff Program — a recruiting campaign that teaches inexperienced participants how to originate mortgages.
At the time, Guaranteed indicated that
around 280 new positions were expected to be created in Chicago during 2017 for the program.
The program has been such a success that the home lender now plans to launch it in Irvine, California.
“This program will replicate the successful Liftoff training model in place at the company’s headquarters in the city of Chicago,”
a news release Tuesday said.
Graduates of the program will
originate for the online division from leads that are generated through digital marketing and advertising channels.
A networking event for program prospects is being held Tuesday
at Del Friscos in Irvine.
In addition to the Liftoff positions, Guaranteed Rate said it is recruiting for other Southern California jobs in human resources, information technology and operations.
Today’s statement indicated that headcount has expanded from 680 employees in 2006 to nearly 3,400 today.
