"I have about 4+ years of combined experience in roles ranging from project coordination, people management, and Talent Acquisition (with more experience in tech recruitment). I often have to explain to people what I have been doing and I'm still doing what I call the 'people field' (i.e project & operations management + Recruitment/HR) because of my scientific educational background in the field of geoscience. The link between all of this is that my educational training has given me an analytical mindset and a structured approach to solving problems and I enjoy anything that allows me to positively impact the lives of people. I currently work as a Tech recruitment specialist in Delivery Hero at the Berlin headquarters."

Behavioural Changes due to the pandemic - Tech Talent Acquisition
A new focus on Talent Sourcing
18. ● Literally all industries have been hit by the pandemic, some more than others
therefore it’s not really business as usual.
● There is a need for everyone of us to accommodate this change and to reinvent
processes and our general approach to Tech Talent Acquisition.
● Targeted talent sourcing has become even much more important.
● Recruiters now need to be better acquainted with the business so you can answer
any question that is thrown at you.
