As a founder and CEO of Spottabl, our past experience has been a significant contributor to our learning and what we are building now .
Spottabl is a SaaS enabled Platform to spot the top talent fast , by augmenting recruiting super powers of expert recruiters on cloud.
During 18+ years of my career in diverse areas like startup & strategic recruitment, talent branding, career guidance, business partnering, corporate training and people management etc.
I have been lucky enough to work in some awesome places at the right time of my career. Have worked with amazing Computer Science Research minds , Tech Leaders and Business Leaders and a bunch of early to growth stage founders as my stake holders, peers or colleagues . It was possible due to my career opportunities at Microsoft Research Labs, Aol India, Flipkart in its early days , Practo in early days and a Venture Capital firm before I called it quits as an employee and wanted to go give my shot as a founder to solve the problem that I was always passionate about.
By being a very curious and passionate about solving problems specially recruitment space and people gamut, I have always enjoyed my recruiting background and research and here's how:
- Have been a problem solver when it comes to partnering with business in recruitment and talent solutions.
- Loved being a storyteller
- Connecting People
- Being a cultural Ambassador of companies / startups that I worked with
- A constant learner from various "best in class global products" that are solving for marketplaces, AI and Human backed technologies through their highly tech and progressive solutions.
As a recruiting professional in past, I have always been one of the early adopters and experimented many newcomers and old players in several areas like
- HRTech solutions
- Job Post platforms
- AI for Hiring , Applicant Tracking Systems
- Talent Bidding Platforms
- SaaS Solutions for Recruitment
- Hired more recruiters just because there was a temporary spike in hiring
- Engaged more recruitment agencies and consulting firms
Advocated some or all of the above as "Quick fixes" only to realise nothing actually solved for recruitment in the long run and at a holistic level. Rewiring in Hiring was needed!
All this helped me learn one of the biggest lessons in my professional life. Learned a true difference between a feature and a Product and the fact that building a feature is not wise and scalable specially when one wants to solve a complex problem in the business of people :)
