Nidhi Bajaj — Recruiter
The best technical hires happen when you understand both the code and the person behind it. I'm a Human Resources Professional with 14 years of experience, and I've spent my career doing what I love most: finding exceptional talent in AI/ML, data science, cybersecurity, engineering, and product roles. These aren't just jobs to me – they're the positions that are literally building our future. My journey has taken me through healthcare, e-commerce, logistics, telecommunications, and non-profit sectors, and here's what I've learned: every industry needs great technical people, but finding them requires more than posting a job description and hoping for the best. I've worked across the full spectrum of HR – talent acquisition, performance management, organizational development, policy creation – but my sweet spot is technical recruiting. I get genuinely excited about connecting a brilliant data scientist with the right opportunity or helping a cybersecurity expert find a role where they can make real impact. What makes the difference? I don't just match skills to requirements. I understand what makes an AI engineer tick, what drives exceptional product managers, and why the best cybersecurity professionals think differently. This insight comes from 14 years of working both as an individual contributor and leading teams, so I've seen hiring from every possible angle. I've consistently delivered results even when the market was tough, building high-performing teams across completely different industries. My approach is simple: understand not just what someone can do today, but where they want to go tomorrow. Currently at TELUS, I'm focused on evolving how we find and attract the AI/ML and cybersecurity professionals who will drive our industry forward. Technology is changing how we recruit, and I'm here for it. Interested in talking about technical talent acquisition? Let's connect – I'd love to hear what's working (or not working) for you.
