Inessa Vasilyeva
@inessavasilyeva
Experienced HR leader specializing in talent acquisition and international teams.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven HR professional with over eight years of experience in talent acquisition, team leadership, and HR strategy implementation across international teams. I have built and scaled recruitment functions, designed HR systems, and led performance management rollouts that improved retention and operational efficiency.
At WEB20Ranker I developed an HR system for 200+ international team members, reduced onboarding time by 40%, and implemented a Performance Management system across the entire workforce. Previously, as Talent Acquisition Lead at Rostelecom, I scaled a distributed recruitment team, drove 100% KPI completion, and launched a company-wide referral program that produced 800+ hires in 2024.
I bring hands-on experience recruiting for IT, marketing, and back-office roles, building recruitment processes from scratch, and fostering HR communities and employer branding initiatives. I prioritize measurable impact, continuous improvement, and cross-cultural communication in fast-growing organizations.
