What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic organization that values employee development and offers growth opportunities.

My name is Shanon Dhurghia, and I hold a Bachelor of Social Science Honours Degree in Industrial Psychology from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. My career has been dedicated to facilitating the relationship between employers and employees, focusing on various aspects of Human Resources, including recruitment, employee relations, and organizational development. I have built a reputation as a reliable and dedicated worker, consistently delivering quality work with minimal assistance.

Throughout my professional journey, I have embraced challenges that foster my development. I pride myself on my ability to build relationships at all organizational levels, which I believe is key to my success as an HR Practitioner. My approach is humanistic yet objective, ensuring fairness while addressing employee issues. I am committed to continuous development and aim to contribute significantly to my future employer's success.
