Focus
The recruiter in this position will have the freedom to customize all stages of the recruiting process, from business development to candidate onboarding:
- Business development: Recruiters have the opportunity to build their own business from the ground up, with the autonomy to choose their preferred industries and verticals. Recruiters earn commission on all their own job orders, even if they give it to another recruiter to fill. Reach out to potential hiring managers within target industries and build new sales relationships. Gather details about company culture and industry and analyze to develop accurate job descriptions. Establish compensation budgets. Regularly ask for referrals to open sales opportunities.
- Sourcing: A marketing team is available to conduct market research, develop captivating job descriptions, brochures, interview prep sheets, and other materials to help to land candidates. Build target lists with the help of dozens of available recruiting tools, including LinkedIn Recruiter, CBR recruiting software, proprietary candidate database, referrals, and networking.
- Interviewing: Select and contact candidates and present a compelling picture of the job—submissions are always at each recruiter’s discretion. Evaluate their skills, motivation, experience, goals, and fit with company culture. Identify candidate strengths and weaknesses and present top resumes to hiring managers with an accurate picture of their qualifications.
- Coaching: Build rapport with hiring managers and candidates to advance the recruiting process. Prepare candidates for interviews with practice questions, insights to the hiring manager and company, and interviewing tips. Spend time presenting candidates in the best light to hiring managers before they interview.
- Onboarding: Coordinate interviews, manage scheduling logistics, and follow up regularly with all parties involved in a placement. Negotiate compensation packages, start dates, relocation, and other onboarding logistics. Provide post-hiring support to the hiring manager.
