Sara Snoussi
@sarasnoussi
HR professional specializing in talent acquisition and people operations, driving hiring efficiency and engagement.
What I'm looking for
I am an HR professional with three years of experience across talent acquisition and people operations, focused on improving processes and aligning HR initiatives with business goals. I have led end-to-end global hiring for technical and non-technical roles across multiple countries, reduced time-to-hire from 90 to 19 days, and managed onboarding, performance cycles, and benefits administration.
I partner with senior stakeholders to design requisitions and recruitment processes, deliver training, and run employee engagement initiatives that strengthen culture and retention. I combine hands-on recruiting (Boolean/GitHub sourcing, ATS/Jira) with operational ownership—onboarding/offboarding, record-keeping, and performance management—to create human-centered candidate and employee experiences.
