## Headline

TA Leader \| 15\+ Yrs Building High\-Performing Teams & Scaling Orgs \| Returning from a parent sabbatical & ready for the next big challenge\!

## About

I’ve spent the last 15 years in the trenches of Talent Acquisition, doing what I love most: helping companies scale, building world\-class recruiting strategies, and connecting amazing people with life\-changing career moves\. Recently, after a decade and a half of non\-stop sprinting, I took an intentional, rewarding break to recharge my creative batteries and spend quality time with my 1\-year\-old daughter\. Chasing a toddler taught me that parenting and TA require the exact same toolkit: high emotional intelligence, extreme prioritization, master\-level negotiation, and a lot of patience\! 😉 Now, I am fully recharged, sharp as ever, and officially looking for my next TA Leadership or Senior Strategic role\. What I bring to the table: • 15 Years of Deep Domain Expertise • Proven track record in full\-cycle recruiting • Stakeholder management, and designing data\-driven hiring processes • Agility & Scale • Experience navigating complex talent markets • Scaling teams from scratch, and advising executive leadership • A People\-First Philosophy: I believe great hiring is built on genuine relationships, transparent candidate experiences, and cross\-functional empathy\. I'm currently open to hybrid, or remote opportunities where I can make an immediate impact\. Whether you want to talk shop about the current talent market, discuss an open role, or just swap toddler survival stories—my DMs are open\. Let’s grab a virtual coffee\! ☕ 📬 Reach out directly: aanushree89@gmail\.com
