About Nora Kawaguchi-Rodriguez

I’m all about matching the right talent with the right opportunity—there\'s nothing quite like the rush of a perfect placement! As a seasoned Talent Acquisition Partner in the fast-paced world of B2B SaaS, I thrive on connecting top-notch candidates with the roles that ignite their potential. My passion lies in understanding my hiring managers’ needs, strategizing with out-of-the-box thinking, and driving results across all levels, from entry-level roles to executive management.With experience spanning full-cycle recruiting, high-volume hiring, and refining metrics that truly matter, I bring speed, precision, and a human touch to every search. Whether if it’s a niche, executive search or entry level, I excel in filling positions across diverse functions. With my background in behavioral interviewing, combined with advanced expertise in tools like Greenhouse and LinkedIn Recruiter, I make sure to consistently bring in great talent! Outside of the office, you’ll likely find me spiking a volleyball in my local intramural leagues or soaking in the coastal breeze on weekend getaways—there’s something about the ocean that recharges me. Originally from South Carolina, I’ve had the chance to travel, teach English abroad, and even dance with a semi-pro Latin team in the Bay Area and SoCal.At the core, I’m a people person. I love learning about others\' journeys, aspirations, and goals, sparking conversations that can lead to exciting opportunities! Let\'s connect!
