What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in HR where I can leverage my recruiting expertise and contribute to a positive company culture.

Hi, I'm Laura Albizu, a dedicated Talent Acquisition Specialist with over 10 years of experience in Human Resources. My journey began with a law degree, which equipped me with critical analytical skills. However, my true passion lies in connecting talent with opportunities, particularly in the IT sector. For the past 6 years, I have specialized in recruiting for challenging positions across various industries, including IT, Telecommunications, and Hospitality.

Throughout my career, I have partnered with leading global companies such as Accenture, Google, and Microsoft, successfully managing the end-to-end recruitment cycle. I thrive on creating positive candidate experiences and have a proven track record in sourcing and placing top talent in high-demand roles. My expertise spans multiple technologies, including JavaScript, React, and Node.js, and I am always eager to adapt and grow in the ever-evolving landscape of talent acquisition.
