About

I'm Chloe Yates, a Senior Recruiter at Capital One focusing on Students and Grads within our Emerging Tracks, specifically Cyber Security. My career has been defined by a passion for connecting talent with opportunity, from staffing high-stakes government proposals to scaling the Capital One Developer Academy (CODA). I’m a proud University of Maryland alum with a background in Criminal Justice, and I’ve transitioned that analytical mindset into the world of technical recruiting. I am deeply committed to fostering a people-first culture where empathy is the standard and work-life balance is a priority. Whether I’m advocating for women in tech or sharing financial literacy tips for students, my goal is to help the next generation of professionals navigate their first 90 days and beyond. I’m always looking to connect with students and early-career pros who are ready to dive into the world of Cyber Security.
