@danielaayala
Psychologist and IT Talent Acquisition consultant specializing in high-volume technical recruiting and employer branding.
Costa RicaWhat I'm looking for
I am a psychologist and IT Talent Acquisition Consultant with a strategic, data-driven approach to sourcing and selecting top tech talent across Latin America. At IBM I led large-scale IT recruitment efforts, hiring 443 candidates, increasing qualified candidate attraction by 30%, achieving an 88% offer acceptance rate, and maintaining a 29-day time to hire.
I combine stakeholder management, headhunting, and training to improve recruiter performance and candidate experience, and I optimize ATS and recruitment analytics to drive continuous improvement. I have delivered recruitment performance reports, ensured 100% audit compliance, and strengthened employer branding through targeted campaigns and expanded sourcing channels.
My background in Psychology and a Master’s in Business Intelligence gives me both the human-centered and analytical perspective needed to align hiring strategy with business goals; I seek roles where I can scale talent acquisition, coach teams, and build pipelines for technical and consulting roles.
