@kingechakaren
Results-driven recruiter specializing in full-cycle recruitment and talent acquisition.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven recruiter with a strong expertise in full-cycle recruitment and remote talent acquisition, particularly in high-volume hiring environments. My proficiency in Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) such as BreezyHR and Teams Tailor, along with virtual collaboration tools like Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, allows me to streamline hiring processes effectively. I have successfully recruited for various sectors, including hospitality, technology, and FMCG, ensuring compliance with labor laws while enhancing the candidate experience.
In my current role as a Career Coach at Careers Without Borders, I conduct one-on-one coaching sessions, facilitating mock interviews and providing valuable feedback to help clients improve their performance. My previous experience as a recruiter at Alternatedoors and Recruitment Room has equipped me with the skills to manage full-cycle recruitment for multiple roles, source candidates through diverse channels, and collaborate with hiring managers to align on job requirements. I take pride in my ability to build talent pipelines and improve candidate quality, which has led to significant reductions in time-to-fill and increased retention rates.
