Irena Mehoj
@irenamehoj
Recruitment professional and talent acquisition partner using data-driven sourcing with a human-centred candidate experience.
What I'm looking for
I’m a recruitment professional with 5 years of experience connecting top talent with global organizations. I blend data-driven strategies with a human-centred approach to improve candidate experience and strengthen employer brands, while keeping the hiring process sharp, compliant, and effective.
In my current and recent roles, I collaborate with clients and hiring managers to understand talent needs, define recruitment strategies, and align initiatives with business objectives. I provide market insights, talent mapping, and hiring trend analysis to support decision-making and workforce planning—especially for complex and executive hiring.
I lead end-to-end recruitment processes, including candidate assessment, competency-based interviews, stakeholder management, scheduling, offer negotiation, and reference checks. I also conduct executive search assignments with a high level of discretion, using innovative outreach channels, networking, referrals, and direct search.
To deliver consistently strong results, I use ATS systems such as Loxo, Personio, iCIMS, and Taleo, while leveraging sourcing platforms and techniques like LinkedIn Recruiter, Xing, ZoomInfo, AI-driven sourcing tools, and Boolean/X-ray search. With a background as a Psychologist and certifications including Tech Recruiting Foundations, I bring both people-first judgment and structured, measurable recruiting execution.
