What people say
Testimonials
We brought on Madina as a full-time recruiter to Coactive at a time when the company was in a hyper-growth stage. In under a year, Madina grew my Machine Learning Team from 3 to 10.
Apart from being excellent at sourcing and doing the recruiter round, Madina brought a wealth of foundational hiring experience, which was evident in how she was able to improve and streamline a previously tedious interview process.
Additionally, Madina has tremendous experience in International Mobility which enabled us to hire extremely qualified candidates from overseas as well.
I have to call out her exceptional people skills, which she used to identify candidates that fit well with the current team to form a tight fitting operational unit that works really well together.
In summary, Madina is a fluently bilingual, fast-learning, experienced, all-star recruiter with incredible people skills that can build strong teams wherever she is deployed.
Madina is second to none. For a couple of years [at Ubisoft], she has been sourcing and hiring the data scientists and the data developers of my team. Her feedback on candidates is highly valuable and I feel confident to blindly trust her when she advises me to filter out a great resume or to consider a more unusual one. Thank you again, Madina!
I hired Madina as the first recruiter at Ubisoft Canada, and she was the sole recruiter for a period while hiring across both the U.S. and Canada for technical and business roles. She is a passionate, relationship-driven recruiter with deep expertise in tech and marketing, a proven ability to build and scale high-performing teams, and valuable experience supporting international mobility. Madina is a trusted partner to hiring managers and an outstanding talent leader.
