About SutraHR
SutraHR came into being in 2008, around the time startup boom had hit India with scores of e-commerce websites going live. These startups had great business ideas and all they needed were the right people to execute those ideas. Identifying this need gap, we had the first mover advantage in the talent acquisition market for startups.
Backed with cutting edge technology, proprietary database and a passionate team, SutraHR soon became a name to reckon with. 15 years and finding right positions for over 4000 people across functions and geographies later, we have only just begun.
What sets us apart? To start with, our indomitable team coupled with the best of technology is a combination that you won’t find anywhere else. Our exhaustive database is the result of years of relentless work put in by our team. We also believe that the awesome work culture at Sutra is why our people deliver good work, every single day.
Who We Are?
Well, we are here to change the way people perceive HR. That it is boring, bland and only a support function is far from reality. The new-age HR is cool, vibrant and instrumental in getting people the jobs they love. We at Sutra strive to live by this mantra every day we come to work.

What I most appreciate about SutraHR’s services is their innovation with helping startups hire the right people. When their DR Model was explained to me, I knew this was not only a smart idea but also extremely convenient for me to coordinate better with SutraHR’s recruiters.
