About

Oh, hi there! 👋 I connect incredible talent with exciting opportunities—it all starts with a conversation! I thrive on learning from others, building meaningful connections, and discovering what fuels people’s passion. Whether you're looking for your next big career move or exploring, I'm here to help! Here's about me: My journey began with a leading Ed-Tech company, where I hired top talent across Business Development, Human Resources, and more. Then, I dived into the fast-paced SaaS world with Zuper, honing my skills in hiring for both technical and non-technical roles - and a bit of leadership roles as well. The best part? Finding the perfect match between rising professionals and impactful careers across non-tech functionalities. But my role doesn’t stop at hiring great talent! I also drive employee onboarding, engagement, performance reviews, learning & development, and compensation benchmarking—and whatnot. I've even built a chatbot as my sidekick 🤖! If it’s an HR tool that can be automated, chances are I’ve already cracked it! 😎. Of course, not all HR moments are joyful—I’ve also contributed to the offboarding process. Started as a recruiter, and evolved into a people person—and the journey continues! 🚀 We’re hiring! If you're looking for a new challenge, let’s chat! Drop me a message or reach out at akshaya.v@zuper.co. Can’t wait to welcome you to the dream team! ✨
