What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in Talent Acquisition that fosters growth and innovation.

I am a Talent Acquisition Specialist with over 8 years of experience in individual contribution, client management, stakeholder management, team management, and vendor management. My journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence in talent acquisition, where I have successfully developed and implemented strategies to attract top talent across various industries.

In my current role as Lead-Talent Acquisition at Acuity Knowledge Partners, I manage the end-to-end recruitment process, build strong relationships with hiring managers, and mentor junior recruiters. My previous experiences at WinWire Technologies and Flipkart have further honed my skills in sourcing, screening, and engaging candidates, ensuring a seamless recruitment experience. I am passionate about driving diversity and inclusion initiatives and have a proven track record of meeting organizational hiring needs effectively.
