What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role in HR where I can leverage my recruitment expertise and contribute to organizational growth while continuing to develop my skills.

With over 9.6 years of experience in talent acquisition across IT and non-IT industries, I have honed my skills in identifying and recruiting exceptional candidates. My journey has taken me through various roles, from HR Executive to Team Lead, where I have successfully led recruitment efforts for both junior and senior-level positions. I am passionate about enhancing employer branding and streamlining recruitment processes to ensure a positive candidate experience.

At Priority Technology Holdings, I currently lead a team of recruiters, managing the complete employee lifecycle and ensuring alignment with organizational goals. My expertise in utilizing ATS and various recruiting tools has allowed me to implement process improvements that significantly enhance efficiency. I take pride in my ability to conduct thorough market mapping and competitor analysis, which keeps me updated on hiring trends and salary benchmarks.

Throughout my career, I have consistently achieved and exceeded targets, earning recognition as a top performer. I believe in continuous learning and innovation, and I am dedicated to fostering strong relationships with both clients and candidates to ensure successful placements.
