4. Assessing candidates for qualification and compatibility with client needs.
5. Coaching candidates for success in interviews and advocating for them with clients.
6. Providing feedback, coaching, conflict management, and counseling to associates for on-the-job success.
7. Counseling associates on professional development, supporting their goals, and developing training plans for upskilling and re-skilling to improve employability and re-employment.
8. Developing relationships with clients and business leaders to foster growth and understand their unique hiring needs.
9. Growing wallet share within a portfolio of small to medium local clients; maintaining knowledge of target industries, roles, market share, and competition.
10. Ensuring high client satisfaction by maintaining retention, fill rate, and time-to-fill metrics.
11. Maintaining knowledge of Adecco’s service offerings to effectively price and sell services (temporary, permanent, and conversion placements).
