What do you see as the biggest challenge for 2025?
Anticipating candidate behavior in industries that evolve faster than most. We've seen firsthand how non-traditional work habits can reshape an entire recruitment strategy overnight.
One piece of advice to the industry?
Understand your audience like your business depends on it—because it does. When you’ve built teams for sectors as specific as gaming, you realize how easily assumptions fail.
A lesson from 2024?
Expect the unexpected. Recruitment in 2024 reminded us that no matter how advanced your tools—AI screenings, psychometrics, or tailored approaches—you still need to stay flexible. The best results came when we combined structure with agility.
Biggest professional challenge?
Scaling a fully operational game testing hub in record time. It required everything—strategy, speed, and structured improvisation.
What motivates you and your team?
We treat hiring like mission design. When your recruiters feel like co-creators, not executors, motivation becomes part of the culture.
What are you preparing for recruiTECH CEE?
A behind-the-scenes look at a case that redefined how we think about recruitment for digital natives—an inside story only a handful of teams could tell.
