I run end-to-end recruitment for a public sector medical university, managing the full hiring lifecycle from vacancy advertising through onboarding for Teaching Faculty and Admin positions as well in various departments. Over 6+ years, I've screened thousands of applications, partnered with department heads to translate staffing needs into clear job descriptions, and kept recruitment compliant with university policy and labor regulations — while bringing time-to-fill down. Before moving into recruitment, I spent 4 years managing HR data systems and reporting, which gives me a sharper eye for the data side of hiring — something I've also written about: my published research covers how technology-assisted recruitment affects hiring quality and efficiency, and the factors shaping internal/external auditor performance.
