What the recruiting work involves
You would start at the top of the hiring funnel: finding potential candidates on job portals and other hiring platforms, going through applications, shortlisting suitable profiles and doing a first round of screening against what each role needs.
From there you move into logistics. That means scheduling interviews, coordinating AI interview assessments and staying in touch with candidates while the process runs. You also keep the paperwork current: candidate databases, hiring trackers, where each interview stands, and a daily recruitment report.
The last stretch is closing. You chase shortlisted candidates, help with documents and joining formalities, and push towards monthly hiring targets.
