IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a Talent Acquisition specialist with over 10 years of hands-on experience executing end-to-end recruitment across pharma, manufacturing, and corporate functions.

At Cipla I implemented TurboHire and SuccessFactors to streamline sourcing and hiring, achieving 100+ hires per quarter with average time-to-fill under 30 days and improving sourcing efficiency by 20%. I recruit across technical, medical, and corporate roles using Boolean, X-Ray, GitHub, Stack Overflow, LinkedIn and niche portals.

I bring expertise in mass hiring, lateral hiring, salary negotiation, and HR operations to rapidly build and sustain talent pipelines.
