I'm a Strategic Talent Acquisition Leader with 7.5+ years of experience building and scaling hiring functions at hyper-growth startups — Meesho, Vedantu, and OYO. I specialize in 0-1 and 1-10 org building across AI Services, Analytics, Financial Services, Design, and complex non-tech roles, and I've led leadership hiring from Manager through VP level.
Some of what I bring to the table: reducing offer drop-offs through data-driven funnel diagnostics and compensation benchmarking, scaling teams from 10 to 65+ members in under 15 months, and building AI-assisted sourcing and JD optimization workflows that improve speed and candidate quality without losing the human decision-making that matters most in hiring.
I mentor and consult on:
Building a TA function from scratch (0-1 hiring, org design, hiring strategy)
Leadership and niche hiring playbooks (market mapping, self-sourcing, Boolean/X-ray search)
Funnel diagnostics — diagnosing and fixing high offer-decline or drop-off rates
Career guidance — helping recruiters and professionals plan their next move, from IC to leadership roles
Resume building & ATS optimization — crafting resumes that pass ATS filters and actually get shortlisted, based on what I look for as a hiring leader
AI understanding for hiring & careers — practical AI literacy for recruiters and job-seekers alike: how AI is used in sourcing/screening, and how candidates can use AI tools smartly in their own job search
Career guidance for recruiters looking to move into strategic/leadership TA roles
If you're a founder building your first hiring function, a recruiter looking to level up, a job-seeker who wants their resume to actually get seen, or anyone curious how AI is reshaping hiring, I'd love to help.
