We feel excited to consider Amit Kumar Patro as an Inspiring HR Leader in India. At TIGI HR we value the contribution of Amit Kumar Patro in the field of Human Resource (HR) and Talent Acquisition.
Amit is an astute Talent Acquisition Manager at Infosys Ltd. He, along with his team of recruiters have been managing talent attraction & retention for some of the most challenging and high growth units of the company spanning into areas such as, new product and platform development, global management consulting and new-age digital cloud/ERP services. He is also part of the leadership hiring team which is responsible for high profile head hunting for Infosys.
His passion towards interacting with young and experienced minds alike remains to be the primary motivational driver everyday.
He comes from a family of 5 with a background in the Armed Forces. His corporate career of over 7 years post a full-time MBA from Symbiosis International University has been well decorated, with him winning multiple awards at the global TA platform at Infosys. Despite his love for new interactions, he is an introvert and in his past time, prefers doing social service and spending quality time with his family and friends.
His mantra for all the recruiters out there is : “We need to remember that the onus of bringing in the right minds into our organization lies with us which is no less of a responsibility than that of a soldier guarding the Indian borders, in other words we are the gatekeepers of our companies”.
