About

🎯 Talent Acquisition | 🔄 Employee Lifecycle Management | 📈 People Analytics | 🤖 HR Technology | 🚀 Strategic Onboarding Most organisations hire for roles. The best ones hire for outcomes. That distinction is what drew me to HR, and it has shaped every decision I have made since. Over four years of hands-on experience across startups, EdTech, and e-commerce, I have built talent functions from the ground up, not just managed them. I have screened and evaluated over 500 candidates, designed hiring pipelines that cut costs by 44%, and transitioned HR from a support function into a seat at the leadership table. Today, as an HR Business Partner at GiftsBazaar.in, I work directly with department heads to align talent strategy with business growth. My focus areas are: 🎯Talent Acquisition and Workforce Planning: building pipelines before the hiring pressure arrives 🎯People Analytics: using data to identify retention risks and flag organisational health issues early 🎯Performance and Development: designing appraisal cycles that actually develop people, not just evaluate them 🎯Policy and Compliance: ensuring HR frameworks are fair, scalable, and legally sound I am currently completing my MBA in Human Resources Management at MNIT Jaipur, where I am deepening my expertise in Data-Driven HR and AI Fluency in People Operations. My certifications in AI and HR complement this, and I actively apply these tools in my current role. What drives me is simple. Every business metric, whether revenue, retention, or growth, is a reflection of the people behind it. When the people are well-supported and clearly directed, the numbers follow. If you are building a team, scaling a function, or rethinking your HR strategy, I would welcome a conversation. You can reach me at sriya7021@gmail.com or connect directly here on LinkedIn.
