Location:
Mumbai

Function:
Human Resources

Experience:
Minimum 3+ years in Talent Acquisition

About the Role:

At The Whole Truth, we've been fortunate to receive an overwhelming amount of love from the outside world - for our products, our transparency, and our voice. People don't just want to consume what we make; they want to be a part of building it. Every week, we receive resumes, DMs, emails, and applications from folks who say they're "madly in love" with us and dream of working here.

This is where you come in.

This role isn't just about hiring - it's about honoring that love and responding to it with equal warmth. It's about making every candidate feel seen, heard, and valued - whether or not they land the role. It's about building not just the org chart, but the soul of the company.

So yes, you'll do sourcing, screening, stakeholder management, and benchmarking—but you'll also be the face of who we are and how we show up for people who dream of working here. If that excites you, read on.

What You'll Do:

End-to-End Recruitment:

● Own the full-cycle recruitment process - sourcing, screening, coordinating interviews, and managing offers to onboarding.

● Leverage diverse sourcing channels (job portals, LinkedIn, referrals, campus hiring, etc.) to build a strong talent pipeline.

● Design and run structured interview processes with hiring managers across functions.

Strategic Talent Acquisition:

● Partner with internal stakeholders to understand upcoming talent needs and workforce planning.

● Work proactively to prepare hiring plans based on business goals, headcount forecasts, and function-specific nuances.

Market Intelligence & Compensation Benchmarking:

● Stay updated with talent market trends, emerging hiring practices, and compensation insights.

● Conduct benchmarking exercises to ensure our CTC structures remain competitive and aligned with market standards.

Process Management & Talent Operations:

● Manage inbound applications from our career portal, social media platforms, and hiring mailboxes—prioritize and route the right profiles to the right teams.

● Maintain and update internal hiring dashboards, trackers, and reports for visibility and planning.

● Ensure a seamless and engaging candidate experience at every stage.

Stakeholder Management:

● Collaborate with hiring managers and leadership teams to drive clarity on role requirements, assessment criteria, and timelines.

● Act as a consultative partner by bringing in data, insights, and solutions to hiring challenges.

What We're Looking For:

● 3+ years of hands-on experience in end-to-end talent acquisition.

● Proven ability to manage multiple hiring mandates across levels and functions.

● Familiarity with compensation structures, benchmarking tools, and TA analytics.

● Strong interpersonal and communication skills to drive collaboration and alignment across teams.

● A mindset that's both strategic and execution-oriented—you're not afraid to roll up your sleeves.

Nice to Have:

● Experience working in fast-paced or high-growth organizations.

● Knowledge of using ATS platforms, LinkedIn Recruiter, and recruitment automation tools.
