From sourcing to placement, you will run the entire recruiting process. You will spend your time engaging in conversations with job seekers, whether it be over the phone, via email, or in-person. You will build strong relationships with job seekers by coaching them throughout every step of the job search process - from resume editing tips & tricks, to interview pointers, all the way through post-interview breakdown and accepting a new position. In the time not spent finding the next great candidate for the job, you will be meeting with your team to discuss open positions, posting advertisements for open jobs, and learning to utilize online sourcing tools and resources.

To be a successful Staffing Consultant, you must be resourceful, have strong personal initiative, and be a fantastic judge of character. It will be up to your individual discretion to determine the right job fit based on the job seekers capabilities and business character.
