About

Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to lead several high-impact initiatives that align closely with the evolving expectations in a global, people-first organization: 🔹 Global Interview Experience Overhaul – Co-created and implemented a consistent, bias-free interview framework across global teams, training managers for better hiring outcomes. 🔹 TA Process Automation – Streamlined hiring operations through Workday customization, reporting dashboards, and recruiter workflow optimization. 🔹 Onboarding Redesign – Led the end-to-end revamp of Chegg India’s onboarding experience, introducing pre-boarding, toolkits, and structured functional immersion to accelerate integration and improve new hire engagement. 🔹 Office Transformation (2024) – Spearheaded the complete redesign of Chegg India’s workplace, aligning it with hybrid work models, wellness goals, and future workspace strategy. 🔹 Launched India HR OrangeNet – Built a centralized HR portal for policies, templates, FAQs, and resources—fostering transparency and self-service culture. These initiatives not only supported Chegg’s growth but also deepened my experience in talent strategy, culture building, employee experience, and organizational transformation.
