Hi! I’m Jelena, a freelance Full-Cycle Recruiter and Talent Acquisition Specialist with 5+ years of experience in HR, sourcing, and international recruitment. I help startups, scale-ups, and growing companies build high-performing teams efficiently - from identifying and engaging the right candidates to screening, interviewing, shortlisting, offer management, and onboarding. Over the years, I’ve recruited across technology, engineering, marketing, sales, customer support, administration, and specialist roles, including: • Software Developers — Front-End, Back-End, Full-Stack, Java, Python • Software Architects & Senior Technical Specialists • QA/Test Engineers • Customer Support & Customer Success Specialists • Sales & Account Managers • Marketing & Growth Specialists • SEO Specialists & Digital Marketing roles • Social Media & Content Managers • Graphic Designers & Creative Professionals • HR, Recruitment & Administrative roles • HSE / Health & Safety Professionals • Engineering & Technical Professionals • Project Coordinators and Operations roles I’ve worked with companies including Spotipo (SaaS startup), Doonails, Thrive Talent Solutions, and ABB Solutions, supporting recruitment from initial sourcing through to successful placement. What I can help you with: • Writing job descriptions that attract the right candidates • LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean sourcing • Proactive candidate outreach and headhunting • CV screening and candidate shortlisting • Initial interviews and candidate assessment • Interview coordination and recruitment pipeline management • Offer management and onboarding support • Client communication and recruitment reporting • Building talent pipelines for current and future hiring needs 💡 My approach: targeted sourcing, clear communication, fast turnaround, and a strong focus on candidate quality — not simply sending CVs. I also support job seekers with CV writing, LinkedIn profile optimization, interview preparation, and career guidance, backed by professional communication training through BBC/FameLab. If you’re a startup founder, HR professional, or hiring manager who needs a reliable recruiting partner who can step in, understand your hiring needs, and manage the process with minimal supervision, I’d be happy to help.
