Erin Nunn Fairman, Director of Talent Connections
The Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges (OFIC) welcomes Erin Nunn Fairman as Director of Talent Connections. Fairman has built her career around helping people find their way in the world of work. She connects talent with meaningful opportunities and helps organizations meet their workforce needs.
Fairman spent more than a decade in career services at public and independent colleges and universities across Ohio. In those roles, she led career services teams, ran internship and experiential learning programs, coached students, and built partnerships with employers. For the past several years, she has worked in talent acquisition and career transition coaching, partnering with hiring managers, job seekers, and professionals across many industries.
Her time on both sides of the hiring process gives her a clear view of what employers look for and what students need to succeed. She does her best work when she is building relationships and bringing employers, colleges, and community partners together to open doors for students.
