About

People's person is the phrase that the world would use to describe me, but it's too cliché. Inspiring, connecting and interacting with different people in a way that I become a part of their journey, help them grow and figure out the right approach for them, would probably be a better description of what I love doing professionally and personally. On the former front, I'm currently working as a part of the Talent Acquisition (India Recruitment) Team at D. E. Shaw India Private Limited.

HR Intern

May 2019Jul 2019 · 2 mos · Gurugram, Haryana, India

  • As part of my internship at HDFC Bank, I managed their CA Industrial Training Program spanning across India. I oversaw the end-to-end recruitment process for trainees in key units like Audit, Business Banking, Corporate Banking, and Finance. My role involved actively sourcing candidates through both offline channels such as referrals and online platforms like Naukri.com, LinkedIn, Internshala, CA Club India, and ICAI etc. Ensuring a seamless recruitment experience, I hired the best fit candidates for each unit.

Moreover, I spearheaded efforts to enhance employee engagement within the program by conducting a thorough study based on reports from the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD). This study evaluated various dimensions such as work-life balance, employer satisfaction, job roles, leadership, communication, and future prospects, allowing us to optimise employee satisfaction and productivity throughout the program.
