What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven HR and Recruitment Specialist with hands-on experience in end-to-end hiring, candidate screening, and onboarding. I consistently source and shortlist high-quality candidates, managing large-volume pipelines while reducing time-to-hire.
I have managed HR operations and documentation with strong attention to compliance, maintaining accurate employee records, attendance and performance tracking, and payroll-ready data. I contributed to international B2B data projects and streamlined office supply and stock management to ensure operational continuity.
As a collaborative communicator and problem-solver, I support cross-functional teams, mentor students, and lead club recruitment and coordination efforts. I bring strong HRIS and CRM familiarity, Microsoft 365 and Google Sheets proficiency, and a commitment to process improvement and employee experience.
