Summary

With over 8 years of experience in Human Resources, specializing in IT Talent Acquisition, I have developed a deep understanding of the technology landscape, including SDLC, programming languages, and IT frameworks. I speak the language of tech and excel at identifying and engaging top-tier talent in the market, driving them to join and thrive within the organization.

In 2019, I was recognized as the Best Recruitment and HR Consultant by ManpowerGroup Europe, an accolade based on both the volume of successful hires and the outstanding feedback received from clients and candidates.

From a leadership standpoint, I am passionate about fostering a positive and motivating work environment for my colleagues. I regularly conduct workshops to share my expertise and insights across various areas, creating a collaborative space where we can learn from each other and work together to achieve our goals.
