I am an experienced IT professional with 27+ years of overall experience, including 15+ years in software development and 10+ years in IT recruitment consulting, primarily focused on US IT hiring.
My primary specialisation is technical training and productivity improvement for IT recruiters. I help recruiters understand technology, decode complex job descriptions, evaluate resumes effectively, and identify candidates who genuinely match technical requirements.
Areas of Expertise
- Technical Recruiter Training: Helping recruiters understand technology stacks, technical terminology, and role requirements.
- Recruiter Productivity Improvement: Improving sourcing efficiency, screening effectiveness, and candidate-job matching through structured training and practical frameworks.
- JD Simplification: Converting complex technical job descriptions into understandable skills, search strategies, and screening questions.
- Resume Evaluation: Teaching recruiters to distinguish genuine technical experience from keyword matches.
- US IT Recruitment: Training and enabling recruiters working on US IT requirements.
- Recruitment Process Improvement: Improving workflows, team capability, and hiring effectiveness.
- Fractional TA Consulting: Supporting organisations that need experienced recruitment expertise without a full-time commitment.
What Makes My Approach Different?
My background in software development helps me explain technical concepts from an engineering perspective rather than relying solely on recruitment terminology.
My training focuses on practical application: helping recruiters understand what they are hiring for, ask better questions, identify relevant candidates, and reduce wasted sourcing and screening effort.
The goal is to help recruitment teams become more technically confident, efficient, and productive.
