Background
About
I'm Carla Villalobos, based in Spain. Trained as a psychologist, I moved into recruiting because the work is fundamentally the same: understanding what actually motivates and qualifies a person, rather than matching keywords on a page.
That background shapes how I screen: fewer scripted questions, more attention to whether someone's actual working style fits what the role needs day to day. Ten remote placements across e-commerce, marketing, technology, support, creative, and operations later, that approach hasn't changed.
Have a role that could use another set of eyes?
Send over the vacancy and I'll prepare a complimentary Talent Mapping Sprint showing how I'd approach the search. No candidate outreach involved — just a sense of how I work.
