People aren't just resources. They're the reason organisations succeed or fail.That belief is what drew me to HR — and it's what drives everything I do.I recently completed my MSc in International Human Resource Management at the University of Portsmouth (CIPD-accredited), where I built a deep foundation in talent acquisition, performance management, organisational behaviour, and employment law.But here's what sets me apart from most HR graduates: I've actually managed people.As Store Manager at RAMCO SA, I led a full team — designing training programmes that raised transaction values by 20%, implementing a performance management system that improved employee satisfaction scores by 20%, and reducing staff turnover by 10% through targeted job satisfaction initiatives. I didn't study these concepts in a classroom first. I lived them.Now I'm bringing that real-world people leadership into a formal HR career. Currently interning at GAOTek Inc., where I'm gaining hands-on experience in end-to-end recruitment — from sourcing and headhunting to screening, interviewing, and candidate management.What I care about:→ Building workplaces where people genuinely want to show up→ Using data to make smarter people decisions→ Inclusive hiring that reflects the real worldI hold certifications in HR Compensation & Benefits and AI in HR Practices (LinkedIn Learning, 2026) — because the future of HR is data-informed and tech-enabled.Based in UK. Open to HR graduate schemes, people operations roles, and talent acquisition positions.Let's talk: connect with me here or find me at- linkedin.com/in/shreyas-shriyanPortfolio - https://shreyasshriyan.netlify.app/
