Meet Groupon's most tenured member of our Talent Acquisition team, Lauren aka "Lo" Jozefat, our Senior Recruiter based in sunny California 🇺🇸 Read about her day as a recruiter and discover her versatile passions 📚🥗
I’ve just celebrated 13 years at Groupon! The majority of my time here has been focused on Talent Acquisition within North America. I have supported hiring for Sales, Marketing, Finance, Legal, Operations and more.
My day is peppered with phone interviews, it is typically easier to get ahold of me by email because I am jumping from call to call. Outside of any meetings, I do admin work following up with candidates, scheduling interviews, and communicating with hiring managers to round out my day.
Right now I am part of the top priority hiring project of bringing on new sales talent in the United States. We recently regionalized our efforts which has reinvigorated our hiring teams and needs in specific territories.
It is all hands on deck and every action you are making in your role has an impact on the outcome for team goals and company expectations.
I won the Groupon Green Award for Respect, Integrity, and Inclusion in 2022.
Luckily since I’ve been doing it so long my parents know I look at resumes and talk to people on the phone all day long. They have to experience it when I am home for the holidays and getting some work done.
When I was still based in Chicago, we used to have a summer party called “All You Can Street Fest”. It was a half day, we played games, had great food and drink, and employee bands would perform.

Reading! I average about a book a week if not more.
Robin Williams, he was kind and creative and I think he had a beautiful approach to the human experience of connection.
A chef! I love to cook and it would be interesting to try, have support in the kitchen and work with the best ingredients.
Groupon all these years later is still focused on local community and introducing new businesses in your community to you. For someone looking to make a big impact on a small team while loving local, this is the place.
Flexibility, attention to detail, and strong communication.
