Riya Raj

I’m currently pursuing my MBA in HR & IT at Amity University, Patna and if there’s one thing I’ve realized during my journey so far, it’s this- HR is no longer just about people, it’s about understanding people through data.During my internship at Dainik Bhaskar, I worked closely with HR operations, managing data for over 100+ employees. What started as simple reporting quickly became something more interesting for me. I found myself going beyond routine tasks, building Excel dashboards, tracking patterns in attendance and recruitment, and trying to understand what the numbers were actually saying.That experience changed how I look at HR. I don’t just want to handle processes, I want to improve them using data.I’ve since been actively building skills in Excel, Power BI, and basic SQL/Python — not to become a developer, but to become an HR professional who can think analytically and make better decisions.What I bring is a mix of structured thinking, attention to detail, and a genuine curiosity to learn how organizations and people function together.Key Skills:• Recruitment & Talent Acquisition• HR Operations & Employee Engagement• HR Analytics & Reporting• MS Excel (VLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, Dashboards)• Power BI (Basic)• SQL & Python (Basic)• Data Cleaning & VisualizationRight now, I’m looking for opportunities in HR or HR Analytics where I can learn, contribute, and grow into someone who adds real value, not just completes tasks.
