Find qualified candidates beyond the applicant pool. I help hiring teams source passive talent, screen for role fit, and move credible candidates onto the shortlist. As a Technical Recruiter and Talent Sourcer, I combine targeted search with structured candidate evaluation and clear hiring-manager communication. You get a recruiting partner who understands the requirement, investigates the evidence, and keeps the pipeline moving. RECRUITING & TALENT ACQUISITION • Candidate sourcing: LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn sourcing, Boolean Search, X-Ray Search, Apollo, and targeted passive candidate outreach. • Candidate screening: Resume screening, structured pre-screen interviews, and evaluation against agreed role requirements. • Candidate shortlisting: Clear summaries covering relevant experience, strengths, gaps, and questions for the next interview. • Recruiting operations: Pipeline management, candidate follow-up, interview coordination, and actionable hiring-team updates. • Hiring-manager partnership: Clarifying must-haves, refining search criteria, and communicating pipeline challenges early. My strongest recruiting depth is in cybersecurity and technical talent, including IT, cloud, and enterprise technology environments. I also bring blockchain and Web3 sourcing experience. For broader professional hiring needs, I apply the same disciplined approach to understanding the role, finding relevant people, and evaluating fit. In my current role as Manager - HR, Finance and Recruiting at StopAHack, I handle technical candidate sourcing, structured screening, candidate evaluation, and recruiting pipeline coordination. I work with hiring stakeholders, recruiters, professional-services teams, finance teams, and senior leaders to keep hiring aligned with business needs. I work in international and distributed environments, with native English and fluent French. RESUME WRITING & LINKEDIN OPTIMIZATION I also help professionals communicate their value through targeted resume writing, resume optimization, LinkedIn profile optimization, interview preparation, and career positioning. My recruiting experience informs this work: I assess how a candidate’s experience matches an opportunity, identify what needs to be clearer, and turn that experience into focused, credible positioning. My Upwork reviews include successful resume and LinkedIn projects, alongside recognition for communication, attention to detail, and quality. Whether you need a focused sourcing project, structured candidate screening, or ongoing recruiting support, I can help you establish a clear scope and practical next steps. Hiring?
