Talent acquisition specialist delivering full-cycle technical hiring with data-driven sourcing and exceptional candidate experience.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I’m a TalentAcquisition Specialist focused on full-cycle technical recruitment—sourcing, screening, interview coordination, candidate management, and offer-stage support—while keeping ATS records accurate and compliant. I partner with stakeholders to refine hiring strategies and consistently improve candidate quality.
My sourcing edge comes from leveraging LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean and X-Ray search techniques, talent mapping, and AI-assisted recruiting tools like ChatGPT and Juicebox. I’ve supported US-based hiring teams in fast-paced, remote environments, coordinating interviews across multiple time zones.
I bring an engineering foundation with a BSc in Polymer Engineering, which helps me assess and communicate technical requirements effectively. In my recent work, I achieved a 90% role fill rate within agreed hiring timelines, while maintaining strong candidate engagement and high scheduling/satisfaction standards.
