Kailash Pokhriyal — Recruiter
Hello! I’m Kailash Pokhriyal, a recruitment professional with over 5.5 years of extensive experience in talent acquisition across both IT and Non-IT verticals. Throughout my career, I’ve helped organizations—from high-growth startups to Fortune 500 giants—solve their hiring challenges by connecting them with the right talent at the right time. What fuels my work every day is a deep belief that recruitment isn’t just about filling vacancies; it’s about building strong, future-ready teams and transforming careers. Where It All Began: From Civil Engineering to Talent Acquisition My professional journey didn’t begin in HR. In fact, I started my career as a Civil Engineer after earning my B.Tech. My first role was with Satnam Global Infraprojects Ltd., where I worked as a Site Engineer managing key infrastructure projects. This role taught me the importance of timelines, quality, and team collaboration—skills that I later found incredibly valuable in recruitment. While engineering taught me discipline and project management, I found myself more drawn toward human interaction, strategic planning, and team dynamics. I was always the person connecting the dots between teams, resolving conflicts, and ensuring collaboration. That’s when I realized my true calling: talent acquisition. Recruitment offered the perfect mix of analytical thinking and human-centered impact. So, I made the shift—and I’ve never looked back. My Recruitment Philosophy: People First, Strategy Always I’ve always believed that recruitment is more than a transactional function. At its core, it’s about relationships—understanding people, aligning career goals with business needs, and building long-term value for both candidates and employers. But recruitment also requires strategy, tools, technology, and precision. The sweet spot is where empathy meets execution. My approach blends both: a human touch in conversations, and a structured, metrics-driven process in execution. I listen deeply to hiring managers and candidates alike. I ask the right questions. I clarify expectations. And I always aim for a perfect match—not just on paper, but in culture, mindset, and growth trajectory. My Expertise: Full-Cycle Recruitment That Delivers Over the years, I’ve led end-to-end recruitment processes, including: Requirement gathering and job role definition Strategic sourcing (passive, active, referrals, internal databases) Resume shortlisting and screening Interview scheduling and coordination
