About

With a robust background in Talent Acquisition and a passion for Technology recruitment, my journey through various leadership roles has culminated in my current position as a Recruitment Head at CAW Studios. Specializing in Customer Relationship Management (CRM), I've honed skills that are vital for connecting top-tier talent with innovative platforms. With 15+ years in Tech, Talent Acquisition, and Business Development, I’m a strategic thinker focused on adaptability and delivering results. Starting my career with a strong foundation in Technical Support and Customer Management at HP, I transitioned into talent acquisition, where I discovered my passion for people-centric roles. Over the years. I have built high-performing teams for leading startups and tech firms, including early-stage ventures like Hike Messenger, Keka HR and Directi. My expertise lies in understanding both technical and business requirements, enabling me to bridge the gap between teams and drive results. I have been instrumental in scaling startups, establishing recruitment processes and creating strategies that attract top talent from across the industry. #Philosophy: Recruitment is about creating mutual trust and ensuring both candidates and organizations thrive. At CAW Studios, serving as a Head Recruitment, I embraced the challenges of end-to-end recruitment and team management, ensuring seamless HR processes. My mission is to design and interpret the landscape of recruitment, transforming it into an opportunity for both candidates and companies to find their perfect match. My journey has been driven by a commitment to growth, adaptability, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, which I bring to every challenge I take on.
