About Nitu Sood

I am a Scientist by training with 2 patents and 3 international publications from my doctoral research. My area of research was Microbiology and Environmental Biotechnology. I transitioned to the Human Resources space specializing in scientific talent acquisition. At C-Drive, I was hiring scientists and techno-marketing people across the Biotechnology, Personal Care, Food & Beverage, Agriculture, Medical Devices & Chemicals space - pan India. At L\'Oreal, I was part of the global R&I recruitment team and have been a part of scientific talent mapping and acquisition for the global R&I centers (France, Brazil, China, Japan, Korea, Singapore, US, S. Africa & India). I continue to be a Talent Acquisition consultant to L\'Oreal. PS. I have reached the limit on LinkedIn\'s connections and hence unable to accept invitation requests.
