I’m Chhaya Anand, and after 15 years in the tech world, I’ve seen hiring at its most efficient and its most broken. I’ve led teams at Viacom-Nickelodeon, EA Sports, WebMD, StubHub, Gap, Macy’s, Varo Money, Genentech, Meta and First Republic Bank and I’ve learned one simple truth: hiring is about communication not just credentials.

Today, AI and automation dominate the early stages of hiring but in the process, we’ve lost authenticity. Let’s talk IRL (in real life). Résumés get filtered by algorithms, top candidates get ghosted, recruiters, hiring managers and job descriptions rarely match up. Somewhere in the chaos, we lost the plot finding real people who can communicate, collaborate and get sh*t done. Resumes get scanned, filtered and rejected before a real conversation ever begins. Job descriptions read like code. And too often, strong candidates fall through the cracks because they don’t know how to make their voice land.

That’s why I created QUAK — a method and mindset to bring clarity, presence and humanity back into how we interview, hire and communicate.

QUAK bridges the gap between automation and connection so candidates show up with confidence, and employers hire with purpose.

Because if your words don’t reflect who you are, the opportunity will never match who you’re becoming.

Who I Work With:

✔️ Gen Z’s, Millennials, College Students & New Grads: Want to sound like yourself and stand out from the noise? “Let’s find the voice that lands – and own it”.
✔️ College Campuses: I’d love to partner with your school to equip your graduates with the confidence, clarity and real-world voice they need to thrive in interviews and beyond.
✔️ Small Businesses & Early-Stage Startups: Ready to align your hiring voice with your values? Let’s build your process and core values.
✔️ Big Orgs & Recruiters: Already have the brand and process? Great. I’m not here to replace that but if your interviews are missing the human touch, QUAK is the guide that bridges the gap. Keep it close. Especially when you’re racing through a résumé before a back-to-back.

If you’re ready to stop interviewing like it’s 2012 and start communicating for today’s world, QUAK is your edge. Let’s make hiring human and powerful again.

 GLOBALLY!
