About

I'm Diana, Head of Recruitment & Talent Strategy at Hire5. For 5+ years I've been helping US B2B SaaS startups hire faster, smarter, and with far fewer expensive mistakes — sourcing top-tier talent from Eastern Europe, CIS, and LatAm. What makes my approach different: → I don't just fill roles. I diagnose what's broken in your hiring process first. → I build repeatable systems: scorecards, interview frameworks, structured pipelines — so every hire is defensible, not a gut call. → I stay hands-on. I personally run sourcing, screening, and offers — not a team of juniors. → I've closed 500+ roles across SDRs, AEs, Developers, Product, Data, Finance, and C-suite — for both high-volume sprints and executive searches. I work best with founders and hiring managers who are done with slow, chaotic recruiting and want a partner who thinks like a business operator, not a headhunter. If you're scaling your team and want hiring that actually holds — let's talk. 📩 diana@hire5.co | hire5.co
