Full-Time | Base Salary + Performance Incentives | Fast-Growth Environment

We are seeking a motivated, early-career professional who wants to build a career in Talent Acquisition, Recruiting Operations, or Human Resources.

This is not a traditional staffing role.

We partner with growing organizations across multiple industries to manage the top-of-funnel recruitment process — sourcing, qualifying, and booking candidates for first-round interviews. Once interviews are scheduled, our clients take the process from there.

This role is ideal for a recent college graduate or early-career professional who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys performance metrics, and is motivated by measurable results.

⸻

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Making 500–1,000 outbound calls per day

• Screening candidates for alignment and role fit

• Booking qualified candidates for first-round interviews

• Managing candidate pipelines and tracking performance metrics

• Optimizing call scripts and improving booking ratios

• Working closely with leadership to improve funnel performance

This is a metrics-driven role. Success is measured by activity, conversion rates, and booking outcomes.

⸻

Who You Are

• Bachelor’s degree preferred (Business, Communications, HR, Psychology, or related field)

• Competitive, goal-oriented, and coachable

• Comfortable handling high call volume

• Strong communicator with professional phone presence

• Motivated by base pay + performance incentives

• Interested in building a long-term career in Talent Acquisition or HR

⸻

What You’ll Gain

• Real experience in high-volume recruiting strategy

• Training in talent pipeline management and performance analytics

• Direct exposure to client-facing recruitment operations

• A clear performance-based growth track

• Base salary + structured performance incentives

⸻

This Role Is NOT For You If:

• You dislike outbound calling

• You struggle with activity goals

• You prefer slow-paced environments

• You want a purely administrative HR role

⸻

Why This Role Is Different

Most recruiting jobs focus on full-cycle placement.

We specialize in optimizing the top of the recruitment funnel — where most companies struggle.

You’ll learn how hiring truly works at scale.

If you’re competitive, analytical, and looking to build a serious foundation in Talent Acquisition, apply.
