Leenus Telare — Talent Acquisition Manager
From scaling startups to strengthening global talent operations, I bring 6+ years of hands-on experience driving talent strategy across high-growth environments like PayU, ExamRoom.AI, and now Happening Design. Throughout my journey, I've championed the hiring lifecycle end-to-end from building high-performing tech teams and product orgs, to enabling rapid GTM expansion through strategic sales hiring.

Specialties: Recruitment Strategy | Employer Branding | Boolean & Sourcing Techniques | Leadership Hiring | ATS Systems (Reczee, Lever, Greenhouse, Workday) | Stakeholder Engagement | Referral & Headhunting Programs. I thrive in high-growth, high-ownership environments where talent is the fuel, and great hiring drives the mission forward.
