• Hiring the best talent for partner clients is my core area of work. I manage recruitment and HR consulting for global startups and Technology product companies in e-commerce, AI-analytics, FinTech, EdTech, ERP SAAS and Robotic domain.
• My vision behind founding iMind is to provide subject expertise to the companies in a simple, personalised, and keep it affordable model. Addressing people solutions for a company is an ongoing exercise for both the early stages and mature companies. It is exciting to be a mentor/advisor on people strategies to the companies in key areas of market research, comp & ben structure, appraisal system, organisation structure, growth mapping, and new-gen HR policies. I believe all these baby steps set the culture of best practices and are of high importance towards the path to the success of every organisation.
• As an entrepreneur; stakeholder(client) management, planning the growth, strategising, building high performing lean team, and brand building is consequently an integral part of my work. I enjoy being impactful while delivering in a competitive environment.
