My passion for building technologies that make talent acquisition more effective and efficient is a testament to this. I continuously study the hiring process at scale for enterprises and develop solutions like the 'Instahiring Experience' to empower organizations to meet their talent needs, while enabling candidates and learners to succeed to their fullest potential.

Why did you start your company or why do you want to innovate inside your company?

I and my co-founders started Talview with a strong belief in equal opportunities for all individuals, academically and professionally. We believed that AI-powered solutions for hiring and assessments could help achieve this goal.

Starting with “Instahiring” – the company’s concept that time to hire is the key metric to address recruiting and hiring challenges for HR and TA leaders, Talview expanded to offer remote and live proctoring solutions to ensure integrity during the exam, test, and certification process.

Together, Talview partners with our customers worldwide to focus on what matters most - enabling candidates and learners to succeed to their fullest potential.
