Ellie Essary-Pawar

I am a Human Resources professional with over six years of progressive experience supporting full-cycle recruiting, employee relations, onboarding, compliance, and HR operations in highly regulated environments. I provide consultative HR support to managers and employees, translate policy into practice, and manage sensitive personnel actions with attention to accuracy and compliance.

At the Department of Veterans Affairs, I managed full-cycle recruitment, processed personnel actions affecting pay and benefits, maintained HRIS records, and tracked recruitment metrics to support data-driven hiring and continuous improvement. I have hands-on experience with applicant screening, qualification determinations, onboarding, personnel file audits, and training new HR staff.

I am committed to clear communication, process improvement, and regulatory compliance. My background in records management and demonstrated ability to advise leadership and support workforce needs make me well-suited for HR roles that require operational excellence and strong stakeholder partnership.
