About the client:
Our client is a successful American startup in the Technical Recruitment industry. We are not posting the client company's name for this reason.
Our client has been retained by multiple Fortune 500 Companies, including Apple and AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) to provide Recruitment services.
About this job:
We are hiring a Recruitment Consultant for the above client. Since this position (Recruitment Consultant) will be interfacing with highly accomplished and educated clients and candidates, the individual we hire for this position MUST, above all else, possess Executive Communication Skills. This role will start out as a six month contract with the plan to convert to a full-time employee position after six months.
What you will do:
After we have trained you and provided you all of the necessary information (e.g. what criteria to use for finding and evaluating qualified candidates for clients' searches, how to reach out to candidates via email, how to interview a candidate on the phone, etc.), you will be expected to perform three main tasks:
1) You will review multiple candidate profiles, resumes, or CV's and use your critical thinking skills, along with the training we'll provide, to decide which of those candidates are most qualified.
2) Using the training we provide you along with your excellent verbal communication skills, you will conduct phone interviews with the most qualified candidates to evaluate their Technical Skills (e.g. Software Programming), Communication skills, and other qualifications.
3) Using your excellent writing skills, you will create concise summaries of your interviews and also provide recommendations on the next steps for each candidate.
Please note: This position requires extensive outbound phone calling and emailing; however, no selling is involved. You will be contacting highly accomplished professionals (often with Master's degrees or higher) who have REQUESTED to be interviewed and they will be GLAD to hear from you.
How do you know if you're qualified for this position?
* You are coachable. Among other things, this means that when your manager asks you to perform a task differently than how you think it should be performed, you follow the manager's (or VP's or CEO's) advice. When you are not working, you can perform the task however you'd like to perform it but during your work hours, you will need to be flexible and do it with a smile - not a frown.
* You are tech-savvy, meaning you know the difference between Mac & PC, software & hardware, apps, and devices like modems and routers. You also know HOW TO USE Gsuite (G Suite, Google Docs, Google Workplace, Google Sheets, Google Calendar, Google Drive, etc.), Microsoft Office (Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, etc.), Google Chrome (including extensions), Calendly, VPN software, Email tools (fka e-mail), and similar modern work-related tools and technologies.
* You have excellent decision-making skills. Based on criteria and context that is provided to you, you are able to "connect the dots" and make excellent decisions.
* You have excellent written AND verbal communication skills, meaning you speak clearly and you use "active listening" techniques.
* You are able to FOCUS on the work at hand for long periods of time instead of surfing the internet or watching TikTok videos during work hours.
* You are able to work in a fast-paced work environment. Please look up that particular phrase because we will ask you what it means.
You must also possess:
* Ability to speak English fluently and to be able to communicate over the phone in a clear and concise manner
* Ability to read AND understand scripts word for word, resulting in completed valid and successful interviews
* Ability to type accurately using correct grammar and spelling with the ability to take precise dictation
* A minimum of 3 years of PROFESSIONAL or Academic communications experience in the areas of Management Consulting, Market Research, Teaching, Sales, Marketing, or similar field where you interfaced with educated individuals for professional reasons.
* A reliable PC/Laptop with headset (headphones and microphone)
* A reliable High Speed Internet connection
* A quiet area to work inside your home or office WITHOUT interruptions
Work Hours:
* Our clients are based in the Pacific Time Zone (GMT -08:00) and therefore this role will be required to work daytime hours (e.g. 8am-5pm PST with 1 hour lunch).
* Ideally, we are looking for individuals who can work full-time (i.e. Monday-to-Friday 8am-to-5pm PST) but we are also open to highly qualified candidates who can work 20+ hours per week.
Compensation:
* This is primarily a salaried position, as opposed to a "commission based" position.
* Compensation can vary widely depending on each candidate's particular qualifications. If you don't have significant experience and demonstrated success, please don't ask for the top end of the salary range.
* Monthly salary for this role ranges from USD $1200.00 to USD $2000.00, again depending on the qualifications of the individual.
* We also have a 15% Performance bonus plan, allowing our consultants to earn additional compensation based on their performance.
* Payments will be made to Consultants on a weekly basis via Western Union, Zelle, Venmo, Apple Pay, Payoneer, Transferwise (fka Wise), or a similar payment platform.
