Background

About Jonathan Barakat

With 8+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition and Human Resources, I thrive on connecting top talent with the right opportunities to help businesses scale and succeed. I’ve successfully recruited across diverse functions—including Marketing, Technology, Product Management, Finance, HR, Sales, and Project Management—ensuring each hire drives impact. Beyond recruitment, I’ve played a key role in elevating talent strategies by revamping Employee Referral programs, leading Hiring Training initiatives, and partnering closely with global teams and C-suite executives to align hiring with business objectives. I bring strong technical expertise with platforms such as Microsoft Office Suite, ADP, iCIMS, SuccessFactors, and LinkedIn—leveraging them for strategic sorucing, data-driven insights, and process optimization. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and I also draw on a solid background in customer relationship management, which strengthens my ability to build trust and lasting partnerships with candidates and stakeholders alike.
