Human Resources / Recruitment

~ UmaShanker Akharia, also fondly addressed as U.S.A by colleagues I am a recruiter with 13+ years of professional experience covering lateral (11+ yrs), campus (4+ yrs) & leadership (3+ yrs) level roles hiring. In these years, have screened close to 300K resumes, interviewed (phone/in-person) 55K candidates and hired 2150+ employees having payroll impact of > Rs.1 bn on business. Fortunately, my work is a great combination of few things to my liking - number driven (maths), research oriented (fan of wiki/quora), high business impact (probably second after sales), daily interaction with sharp minds (internal leadership & quality candidates) and brand management (B2C, job is product!)....
