Remote Recruiting Specialist

Location: Remote

The Ideal Candidate

This is not a typical recruiting job.

We’re hiring ambitious, hardcore recruiters who take ownership of outcomes. Energized by a dynamic startup environment, you thrive in fast feedback loops, drive momentum, and bring exceptionally high standards to recruitment.

If you’re looking for fixed hours, rigid boundaries, and work life balance, this isn’t it. If you’re driven, responsive, have a strong work ethic, value growth, and want to be rewarded for results, we should talk.

Summary of the Role

The Remote Recruitment Specialist is primarily responsible for outbound sourcing and headhunting passive candidates, conducting outreach, engaging and qualifying them, then facilitating structured candidate assessments to deliver objective, transparent, data-driven hiring outcomes.

You will also screen inbound applicants and develop creative sourcing strategies to find and engage candidates beyond conventional recruiting channels.

Our operations team supports you by building and automating the administrative, assessment, and reporting processes behind the scenes, so your time stays focused on delivering candidate results.

Recruitment covers two tracks: internal hiring and client recruitment. You will collaborate and iterate with our Co-Founders and Account Manager over Slack and recorded Zoom meetings to align on strategy, build our team, and drive client hiring outcomes.

Schedule & Availability

Flexible with common sense. We stay responsive to clients, candidates, and a remote internal team across time zones. Reliable availability for Pacific Time collaboration and candidate interviews is expected,



with flexibility around scheduling.

Key Responsibilities

- Sourcing: Source and qualify passive candidates in line with screening criteria and outbound sourcing strategies, utilizing methods such as headhunting, Boolean search, networking, and creative sourcing approaches. Screen inbound applicants against role requirements. Ensure qualified candidates are captured in company systems with the core screening materials required for the role.
- Outreach & Engagement: Execute high-quality, personalized outreach to passive candidates you source to build rapport, sell the opportunity, maintain momentum, and move candidates through the funnel. Manage follow-ups, scheduling, and candidate communication to maximize conversion from sourced qualified leads to assessed candidates.
- Candidate Assessments: Facilitate structured candidate assessments through recorded video interviews with candidate consent, maintaining alignment with recruitment strategies and briefs. Capture key outputs in company systems and progress qualified candidates toward hiring outcomes.
- Hiring Outcomes: Drive late-stage progression from assessed candidates to hired candidates, including reference checks, ad hoc follow-up interviews, and gathering work samples as needed. Collaborate closely with stakeholders to maintain momentum, remove friction, and support closing steps through to hiring outcomes, ensuring a positive stakeholder experience, strong company reputation, and lasting candidate and client success.

Expectations

- Stakeholder-Facing Professionalism: Conduct all stakeholder video meetings and candidate interviews in business-professional attire, from a skilled workspace or home office.
- Transparency and Proof of Work: Provide objective, transparent,



and verifiable proof of work, including recorded meetings, interviews, and calls where appropriate and with consent, and system updates that allow stakeholders to validate work quality.
- High Communication Standards: Deliver accurate and timely updates, prompt response times, and follow-ups, ensuring candidates, clients, and stakeholders are informed and aligned.
- Timesheet & Activity Reporting: Maintain and submit accurate timesheets on days worked that itemize recruitment outcomes, projects, and hours to ensure transparency and accountability.
- CRM Logs: Maintain accurate activity logs, notes, and next steps for all leads and candidates under your ownership, ensuring accurate attribution, insights, and minimizing duplication of efforts with other recruitment specialists.
- Flexibility & Collaboration: As a startup in a dynamic phase, we may pivot tactics or evolve offerings. We expect flexibility, collaboration, and comfort adapting with a solutions-oriented approach.
- Collaborative Optimization: Provide feedback and share insights with the Operations team to enable their creation and optimization of our recruitment systems and workflows.

Seniority & Fit

We care less about title or years of experience than proof of ability. What matters is track record, work ethic, responsiveness, and ability to deliver recruiting outcomes.
