What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead end-to-end recruitment and operations, work with cross-border clients, improve hiring processes, and grow into broader HR leadership while contributing to a collaborative, impact-driven culture.

I am a Talent Acquisition and Operations professional with over 2.5 years of hands-on experience recruiting across IT and non-IT industries, managing full-cycle hiring, vendor relationships, and internal operations. I have successfully sourced technical talent including PEGA Architects, Data Scientists, Full Stack Developers, System Engineers, and Microsoft Dynamics experts while supporting multinational clients.

I lead recruitment teams, refine job specifications, coordinate candidate pipelines and interview schedules, and improve vendor and client satisfaction through clear communication and SLA management. I have a proven track record of accelerating hiring pipelines, meeting monthly targets, and strengthening institutional partnerships through CSR and university engagement.
