I help companies hire the right people in markets they do not fully know yet. Not volume recruiting. Not CV forwarding. Structured, senior-level hiring support, from role definition to offer acceptance, with full accountability for the outcome. I work with founders, executives, and hiring managers who need speed, judgment, and clarity when building teams across borders. What I do: End-to-end recruitment for senior, specialist, and hard-to-fill roles across Europe, MENA, and North America. Executive and leadership search. Cross-border hiring strategy and market insights. HR operations setup: policies, SOPs, onboarding architecture, compliance frameworks. Workforce planning and org design for scaling companies. How I work: Directly. No outsourcing, no templates, no junior handoffs. You work with me from day one to placement. Results: 60+ placements across Europe, MENA, and North America via Upwork. 95%+ retention beyond the first year. 20+ companies supported on recruitment and HR operations. If you need someone who understands how hiring decisions are actually made, across cultures, markets, and org structures, let's talk.

Hi, I’m Mercy. I help busy founders and executives get their time back. Think of me as the extra set of hands (and brain) you wish you had, someone who can handle the recruiting and administrative load with speed, accuracy, and initiative, so you can stay focused on growing your business. For the past 5 years, I’ve supported global startups and established companies in building high-performing teams, streamlining HR operations, and keeping everything behind the scenes running smoothly. My background in HR and Talent Acquisition means I don’t just understand people, I understand business, process, and what it takes to scale effectively. ✅ A Few Highlights: - Led and trained a team of 10+ recruiters across Europe, cutting time-to-hire and improving overall recruitment efficiency. - Sourced and placed top-tier candidates in key roles, helping startups build strong foundations and scale faster. - Supported full HR operations: onboarding, training, offboarding, and compliance - Managed complex data, reports, and scheduling tasks with precision and consistency. When clients hire me, they don’t have to chase updates or explain things twice. They trust that things will get done thoughtfully, efficiently, and with care. 🛠️ What You Gain by Working With Me: - Time-Saving Efficiency: I move quickly and independently so you can focus on strategy, not small details. - Quality Results: Whether I’m sourcing candidates or managing data, I prioritize accuracy, culture fit, and long-term value. - Reliable Admin Support: From scheduling to reporting, I make sure your operations stay seamless. - Transparent Communication: You’ll always know what’s happening and where things stand. - A True Partner: I bring initiative, empathy, and professionalism, not just to get things done, but to make your life easier. If you’re looking for a dependable Recruiter or Admin Assistant who feels like part of your team from day one, I’d love to help you reach your next milestone.

Hi, I’m Sajjad — a Full-Cycle Recruiter and Talent Acquisition Specialist with 4+ years of experience helping companies identify, engage, evaluate, and hire qualified talent across technical, business, and professional roles. I specialize in end-to-end recruitment and candidate sourcing, from understanding your hiring requirements and building targeted candidate lists to screening, outreach, interview coordination, and supporting the hiring process through offer acceptance. I use advanced sourcing strategies across LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, ContactOut, GitHub, job boards, Boolean Search, and niche platforms to find both active and hard-to-reach passive candidates. Here’s how I can support your hiring: • Full-Cycle Recruitment & Talent Acquisition • Candidate Sourcing & Head Hunting • LinkedIn Recruitment & Boolean Search • Active & Passive Candidate Sourcing • Candidate Screening & Shortlisting • Technical & IT Recruitment • BPO & Customer Support Recruitment • Executive & Professional Hiring • Job Posting & Recruitment Research • Candidate Outreach & Engagement • Interview Scheduling & Coordination • Recruitment Market Research I have experience sourcing candidates across IT, SaaS, BPO, digital agencies, marketing, sales, customer support, project management, design, and other business functions, with the ability to adapt my sourcing strategy based on your role, industry, location, and hiring requirements. Whether you need one difficult position filled or ongoing recruitment support, I focus on delivering qualified candidates rather than simply sending large numbers of profiles. My goal is to save your team time and help you move from job requirement → qualified candidates → interviews → successful hire efficiently. New to Upwork, but not new to recruitment. I bring 4+ years of hands-on recruitment and sourcing experience and can work as an extension of your internal HR or Talent Acquisition team. Looking for a recruiter who can source smarter, communicate professionally, and consistently deliver qualified talent? Let’s connect. Cheers, Sajjad Hassan
