I’m a strategic & result-oriented TA Leader with 19+ Years of exp hiring for tech and business roles across lateral to leadership bands. I’ve hired across Mid-Senior Leadership Levels (especially in the Technology, Digital, Analytics, R&D, Data Sciences & AI/ML space) with focus on Exec/CXO Level Hiring in recent 7+ Years.As the Head of Recruitment Services (Executive Search, RPO & Lateral Recruitment) for the India region at Vbeyond Corporation, I’m responsible for building new & nurturing existing customer relationships while spearheading the search/recruitment/advisory efforts and delivering strategic talent initiatives across diverse clients. With a PAN-India high-performing team of ~90 members spread across Bangalore, Noida, Hyderabad & Lucknow, we had been consistently delivering top-tier hires across multiple industry verticals.In my previous 4 year’s stint as “TA Leader for Digital & Analytics” hiring at Genpact, with a ~12 recruiter team, I led the end-to-end recruitment efforts & had partnered with global business leaders to successfully onboard talent for Platform Engineering, Intelligent Automation, Digital Products & Accelerators, Technology Services, Data Engineering, AI/ML Solutions, GenAI, MLOps, Advanced Analytics, Cloud Services, SRE, DevSecOps, QA, Customer Experience, Infra and Corporate IT roles.As a credible talent-partner to my clients/stakeholders, I deep-dive to understand the underlying business objectives first & then cater to their talent-needs via a strategic consultative approach backed by analytics/metrics, talent availability, comp research, market & competitor intel, success stories, etc.I collaborate with the hiring leaders to overcome challenges (niche-skill, talent shortage, budget constraints, OB timelines, etc. ) by implementing best-practices to attract top talent & create the best candidate experience till onboarding.Being a tech-savvy TA professional myself & with a genuine passion for passive Exec/CXO Level talent networking, I take pride in my ability to nurture, upskill & empower resilient high-performing TA teams.
