What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role in talent acquisition that fosters collaboration and innovation.

I am a dedicated technical recruiter with extensive experience in sourcing and headhunting for both technical and non-technical roles. My journey in recruitment has equipped me with a deep understanding of niche skill sets and industry-specific requirements, allowing me to effectively align candidates with client needs. I have successfully managed the full-cycle recruitment process, utilizing innovative sourcing techniques and maintaining a comprehensive candidate database.

Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to optimize recruitment strategies, streamline communication between departments, and enhance workflow efficiency. My role as a Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist at Oceans XYZ involved assessing thousands of candidate applications and implementing dynamic sourcing strategies, resulting in a significant reduction of backlog and improved ATS efficiency. I take pride in my ability to close positions swiftly while ensuring the highest quality of candidates.

With a strong foundation in business administration and a passion for talent acquisition, I am committed to driving continuous improvement in recruitment processes. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am eager to contribute my skills to a forward-thinking organization that values innovation and collaboration.
