Sonal Gangwar (She/Her) — Recruiter

With over seven years of experience in technical talent acquisition, I have built and executed recruitment strategies that drive high-impact hiring for engineering and product teams. Throughout my career, I have successfully scaled teams for R&D, software development, and emerging technology divisions. At VMware, I played a pivotal role in bootstrapping the Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) team in India, hiring over 50 engineers and senior leaders. I also led diversity hiring initiatives, exceeding set targets while maintaining a 91% offer acceptance rate. My approach integrates advanced sourcing techniques, AI-driven recruitment tools like SeekOut and HireEZ, and data-driven decision-making to optimize hiring efficiency. Beyond sourcing, I have leveraged automation and recruitment technology to enhance hiring processes. My proficiency with ATS platforms such as Workday and Greenhouse ensures a seamless candidate experience and effective talent pipeline management. What excites me most about my professional experience is to bring my technical recruitment expertise, strategic sourcing skills, and passion for connecting top talent with meaningful opportunities to any team. Outside of recruitment, I have a passion for calligraphy, a practice that has reinforced my keen eye for detail, patience, and precision—qualities that directly translate into my approach to talent acquisition. Just as every stroke in calligraphy requires intention and finesse, I believe that every hire should be thoughtfully curated to align with both a company's vision and a candidate’s aspirations.
