Why I Started This Blog
Recruitment often feels like a numbers game. But it doesn’t have to be.
I believe hiring should be structured, human, and designed for long-term success.
This blog is my way of breaking down the process—from both sides of the table.
Here you’ll find best practices, tools, and examples that actually work, whether you’re:
- Preparing for your next interview, or
- Building a team as a hiring manager.

Working across such varied environments has shaped my holistic approach: structured, people-first, and designed for long-term impact.
