The Back2Bharat Experience

Voices from Back2Bharat

I discovered GTX through an email and learned about their virtual career fair, ‘Back2Bharat,’ which proved immensely valuable. What impressed me most was the team’s consistent effort to stay connected and match candidates with suitable opportunities and contacts. The process was highly organised, and I especially appreciated the convenience of a single job-search portal. It is commendable to see GTX expanding its network of partner companies.

Urvish Mahida

Principal Member of Technical Staff, Salesforce

Partnering with GTX to build our critical Finance and Data Operations team was a strategic decision that paid off. Their series of 10 recruiting events over four months gave us access to a pipeline of more than 500 high-quality candidates across levels. With their support, we hired 50 team members who have contributed significantly to our success. The events also gave our leaders a powerful way to engage the right audience and showcase Shell’s culture and EVP.

Ramachandran Krishnamoorthy

Former Senior Talent Acquisition Leader

As a relatively new company in India, we faced challenges in establishing our core engineering and product teams. GTX proved invaluable in helping us build our employer brand and reach the right talent audience, both domestically and globally. Their expertise in talent mapping, attraction, and engagement helped us fill critical roles. We are grateful for their support and would highly recommend GTX to any company looking to build a strong talent brand and hire exceptional candidates.
