GC JayaprakashAsia/Pacific Regional Practice Leader - Technology Jay was one of the early birds to offer Executive Search Consulting in the city of Bangalore, starting way back in 1990. He was the start-up leader for Stanton Chase India in Bangalore when he moved in along with the promoting team during the year of 1999. He was instrumental in setting up the initial platform for technology searches, which is the mainstay of Stanton Chase’s offerings in the city of Bangalore. Jay specializes in appointing leadership teams, particularly Country Managers, Center Directors for global R&D centers and CEOs facing India markets for reputed global technology companies and leading Indian software companies. He was indeed one of the first to propagate the concept of "reverse-brain-drain," which involves identifying and attracting globally located Indian managerial and engineering talent for positions based in India. He has a deep understanding of candidate availability, research processes and rolodex of key leaders in technology space, who in turn would lend their opinion, expertise and contacts to him. Jay is viewed as an affable, highly reliable and a confidential sounding board by many senior candidates in the city of Bangalore. He is invariably invited for searches because he knows how to relate to candidates and how to make them listen to his views. Jay is viewed as a thoroughbred professional who would be fully prepared with all the clients and the job related information and present the case as is where is. He now has 22 years of consulting and executive search experience, 14 of which is with Stanton Chase and all of which is in the city of Bangalore - making him almost a permanent fixture in the important forums relating to the technology sector. Before his baptism into executive search space, he had a useful stint in the early stage of career with Wipro and BEL in Human Resource Departments. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Commerce and is a renowned Bangalore protagonist who often is found airing his views in the media on corporate and social subjects with equal élan.
