Role Overview: 

This is a hands-on, high-volume role.  You’ll run the full hiring process for our busiest positions.  You’ll source, screen, shortlist and move candidates through the pipeline quickly without letting quality slip, ultimately driving down time-to-hire and filling open roles efficiently.  The right person enjoys the pace, knows a strong candidate when they see one, and meticulously keeps records the whole team can rely on. 

*It is essential to complete all pre-screening questions during the application process.  Applications without completed pre-screeners will not be considered.

• Keep candidate records, pipeline status and hiring data accurate and up to date in our ATS (Zoho) and tracking tools
  
• Proactively build talent pools for recurring roles to pre-fill open positions and shorten time-to-hire

Desired Skills & Experience:   

• At least 2 years of recruitment experience, ideally in high-volume hiring for remote, VA, customer support roles

• A self-starter who manages their own workload, sets priorities and follows through without needing reminders
