About

From a young age, I have been outgoing. When I was in India I was studying pre-med and then I was moved to US by my dad. When I came here, my dad wanted me to study accounting and follow the family path, but that seemed too boring for my vivaciousness. So, after exploring many careers I landed in Technical Recruiting since I love computers so much. I recently built my own PC by myself. I have placed many people in my career and want to continue doing that. Along with helping people find their right careers. In 2017, I started my blog called The Frustrated Recruiter, which is currently The Recruiting Daily. It might get revamped over the next year. The articles written on the blog by me and other authors come from our own experience. The hope is that a few people would be helped by the articles.

I am supposed to give my job description here. Well, let's see. I am recruiter by both passion and profession. I believe in making the right long-term match. I also believe that a candidate has a lot of leverage, but am not afraid to give constructive and stern criticism on both sides when necessary. I work with candidates in the Tech field. Helping them find jobs mostly in the Phoenix market but sometimes also in Austin, Las Vegas and along the west coast.
