Before starting her ventures, Kave built an exceptional career in Talent Acquisition, Employer Branding and DEIB with some of Europe’s leading technology companies, such as SmartRecruiters [https://www.linkedin.com/company/89225673/admin/#], Pitch Software, Zalando [https://www.linkedin.com/company/89225673/admin/#], N26 [https://www.linkedin.com/company/89225673/admin/#], CareerFoundry [https://www.linkedin.com/company/89225673/admin/#], and hibooks [https://www.linkedin.com/company/89225673/admin/#].
