Hi, I'm Jitakshi.

I work across recruiting coordination, operations and sourcing, building the processes that help candidates and hiring teams work well together. I like making complicated hiring simple, from the first interview request to the final decision.

About me

Making hiring easier for everyone involved

I started in recruitment coordination at HTA Products, then spent time in marketing and in technical sourcing at Scale Without Borders before returning to coordination at Amazon and Databricks.

At Nscale I helped launch GoodTime from the ground up, and I train and onboard team members and build the AI-assisted workflows and documentation that keep the process efficient. I enjoy the operational side of recruiting: clear processes, quick turnaround, and a good experience for every candidate and hiring team.

Expertise

Where I add value to a recruiting team

Interview Operations

200+ interviews scheduled each week, including complex multi-stage loops for engineering and product roles and executive and senior hiring. Reduced scheduling turnaround time and ensured every request is handled within 24 hours.

Executive and Senior Hiring

Targeted sourcing and outreach for senior and executive roles, using LinkedIn Recruiter and professional networks to reach the right candidates.

Process and Playbooks

SOPs, workflow documentation and templates built into recruiting systems, with AI-assisted workflows, so the process stays efficient and consistent as the team grows.

Training and Adoption

Supported interviewer training programs that prepared new interviewers to run structured, consistent interviews, which led to fairer assessments, a better candidate experience and more confident hiring decisions. Also helped launch GoodTime, onboarded and trained team members on it, and tracked recruiting data so reporting stays accurate.

Early-career Hiring

University recruiting support alongside experienced-hire roles, balancing high volume with a good candidate experience.

Talent Sourcing

Kept hiring pipelines full with 150+ targeted outreaches a week across tech and non-tech roles, matching candidates to each team’s needs and turning that outreach into hires from entry level to senior.
