A couple of words about me...
Hello, I'm a Recruiting Professional, Career Coach and Graphic Designer currently based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
When I am not working as a Senior Recruiter for a well-known social network company, I am passionate about all things creative: web and graphic design, photography, and tech.
I am fluent in English, German, French and Spanish, and I have added Hebrew to my list of language skills since I moved to Israel in 2017. Travelling and tasting new foods and flavours also ranks pretty high on my list of things I love to do in my spare time - at least in the pre-COVID era.
Feel free to download a "traditional" copy of my resume here.

Professional Experience
Senior Business Recruiter, EMEA
2018 - present
Facebook (Tel Aviv, Israel)After 5 years of recruiting for the world's largest online-retailer, I couldn't resist the temptation of joining a company whose mission is to bring people closer together. The Facebook apps family (Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.) connects over 2 billion people daily, and Facebook Tel Aviv's specific mission is to connect the next billion, which is mostly located in developing countries.I first joined Facebook as a Senior Technical Recruiter, where I was responsible for the recruitment of Software Engineers and Machine Learning specialists across all levels. I then decided to jump back into the “business” side of things. My remit now involves G&A recruiting (ie. non-tech positions in HR, Recruiting, Finance, Public Policy, Communications, etc.) across all of Facebook’s EMEA offices, including but not limited to London, Dublin, Paris and Berlin. I am also the leading recruiter for R4R Hiring roles in Tel Aviv, Israel (which covers HR, Sourcing, Recruiting and Recruitment Projects). |
