ABOUT ANKIT KUMAR

As a Lead Tech & Product Recruiter at Paytm, I am responsible for sourcing and assembling exceptional talent across senior, mid-senior, and entry-level roles. My career is marked by consistent recognition, including multiple Rockstar Awards, for surpassing performance expectations. Prior to Paytm, I worked as a Tech & Product Recruiter at Microsoft, where I played a pivotal role in identifying and hiring top-tier talent for various technical and product roles. My experience at Microsoft helped refine my expertise in scaling teams, managing high-volume hiring, and collaborating with leadership to meet organizational goals. Before my time at Microsoft, I served as a Senior Technical Recruiter at Skillenza, where I gained valuable experience in recruiting for highly specialized technical roles. At Skillenza, I collaborated with startups and enterprises to solve their talent acquisition challenges, creating tailored recruitment strategies that resulted in successful hires for key positions. With a solid background blending human resources and finance, coupled with an MBA from Bangalore University and a SourcePRO certification, I bring a unique perspective to the recruitment process. Driven by a deep curiosity for discovering top talent, my mission is to redefine the candidate experience and enhance post-offer engagement. My commitment to continuous growth fuels my passion for adopting innovative methods and excelling in dynamic, diverse teams, ensuring each recruitment effort achieves excellence.
