Proactively source and engage passive candidates through Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, talent mapping, referral networks, and creative direct outreach
Design and facilitate structured interview processes that assess for both technical capability and performance potential — not just culture fit on paper

Build and maintain warm pipelines for recurring and critical roles so no search ever starts from zero
Use recruiting data (pipeline health, funnel conversion, time-to-fill, source mix) to identify bottlenecks and continuously sharpen your process
Challenge hiring criteria when job requirements are misaligned with the market — and back your recommendation with data
Deliver a candidate experience that makes even declined candidates advocates for Giga
