More about Marit Alaväli

I am a human, a woman, a mother and an entrepreneur with my strengths and weaknesses, feelings and emotions. Started my career as an assistant, grew step by step from HR manager to CEO, then to entrepreneur. Experienced success, challenges and burn-down in business. Recovered and learnt from the experiences - the practical steps on what to do differently, what to avoid and how to manage the pain and emotions. I don’t regret it. Today I am thankful and I’ve understood that the journey has changed me to be a better, a stronger and more experienced person. 

I love working with people even though sometimes it’s challenging and I don’t fully understand them. For years, I have been working to change the mindset in recruitment. I truly believe that a work relationship must be a partnership and it starts with the right mindset in recruitment. The way I contribute to change the mindset is through Recrur. 

Recrur connects the best candidates, employers and the recruiters without any hassle!

It does not matter what or where I work, it matters how I do it - valuing people around me, working to meet goals and enjoying the process. When it is over, it’s time to step out of the boat and find a new challenge.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”
