• Career Highlights:-

• I started in 2006 with their ITES team in Mumbai , having spent 6 months and catered to a one of the top client of Mafoi , hiring associates for hyd and vizag region from mumbai. In these 6 months I got an oppurtunity to interact with colleges to hire from the campuses.It challenged my networking/convincing abilities as I came from the same industry however the candidates had to be convinced to relocate.
• During this period Mafoi was planning to launch a retail set up of HR ( thru small hubs across Mumbai).And I got an opputunity to be apart of the pilot team of operations for the same.
• And the most amazing professional journey began, it was a thrilling experience to build this chain of hubs across Mumbai. Servicing clients across sectors and positions.(The experience was nothing less than bringing up a child - all the stakeholders will agree to this).
• After spending a year and half with this venture, it was time to take up a new challenge and in 2008 I took over as leader for Temp recruitment's for Mumbai region.
• And again I was presented with an oppurtunity to build a team , add clients, services and grow the region and build the team to compete with other market leaders.
• During this stint i got an oppurtunity to work on various recruitment models like RPO/Managed services etc.
• Handled rural hiring process for Pharma, BFSI,FMCG clients.
