Tania Pineda

I’m a very enthusiastic and energetic person who always gives 100% in everything that I do. My career passion is Human Resources. I always enjoyed working with people and helping others. So I went to school and obtained my bachelor’s degree in business administration majoring in Human Resources.

One of my favorite classes was recruiting, which later became one of my greatest strengths.My main responsibility in a HR role was managing all the recruiting process, which I love it. I was able to manage the whole recruiting process on time and meet all the deadlines. I also worked for the government of Alberta in administration, where I had the opportunity to combine and expand my human Resources experience with administration.

Looking forward, I’m seeking for more responsibilities where I can grow as Human Resources professional, where I can advocate for employees, listening to their needs, and cultivate a positive workplace culture. I am passionate about obtaining a role as a Recruiter or Human Resources coordinator and contribute to a team and support their mission of delivering exceptional service and expertise.

Skilled Human Resources professional with expertise in recruiting, office administration, data entry, and scheduling. Skilled at providing and receiving constructive feedback, with a proactive approach to implementing new ideas and driving continuous improvement. Known for strong interpersonal, negotiation skills and building effective relationships with colleagues, management, clients, and customers.

Experienced in fast-paced, high-pressure environments, with a proven ability to prioritize, meet deadlines, and deliver exceptional service.
