Sourcing & Pipeline Cultivation

• Map out and implement sourcing initiatives across job boards, professional networks (LinkedIn, JazzHR), employee referrals, and social media platforms to generate a sustainable volume of prospective candidates.
• Establish early-career talent funnels by actively collaborating with target universities, student organizations, and industry networks to expand pipeline diversity and volume.
• Curate and nurture warm talent pools for recurring or critical organizational profiles, mitigating risk for sudden operational ramps.

Candidate Selection & Screening Operations

• Review inbound resumes against structured technical and cultural profiles to validate candidate viability cleanly and accurately.
• Conduct thorough preliminary interviews and check foundational attributes utilizing defined evaluation parameters before advancing candidates to hiring manager interviews.
• Route and monitor candidate milestones through company-standard psychometric tools (e.g., Mercer | Mettl platform), ensuring validation rules are uniformly met.

Interview Coordination and Management

• Schedule and orchestrate multi-stage interviews, eliminating calendar conflicts and maximizing interview process velocity for both hiring teams and candidates.
• Function as the primary point of contact for active applicants, sending updates, managing status transparency, and delivering sensitive decisions with deep empathy.
• Actively collect post-interview evaluations from hiring managers to continuously calibrate sourcing specifications and accelerate final offers.

Data Governance, Reporting & Compliance

• Maintain "audit-ready" information logging inside core Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and internal recruitment trackers without data lapses.
• Compile core talent analytics, including Time-to-Fill, source conversion efficiency, and drop-off trends—to provide operational clarity to leadership.
• Ensure full alignment with local labor codes, data privacy legislation (handling PII with extreme discretion), and internal corporate policies throughout the hiring sequence.

Employer Branding & Collaborative Support

• Assist in crafting recruitment collateral (one-pagers, landing pages, visual postings) in tandem with creative partners to present a high-impact "digital storefront" to the talent ecosystem.
• Identify administrative friction points in candidate processing and recommend modern updates to standard operating procedures (SOPs).
• Provide backup execution across secondary HR lifecycle activities and special projects as requested by the unit head.

Data Management and Reporting

• Utilize trackers to manage candidate information, track recruitment metrics, and generate reports.
• Analyze recruitment data to identify trends, assess the effectiveness of sourcing strategies, and make data-driven recommendations for improvements.

Collaboration and Support

• Collaborate with the HR team and hiring managers to continuously improve recruitment processes and best practices.
• Provide support in other HR-related tasks or projects as needed.

WHAT SHOULD YOU HAVE?

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field.
