Job Description
Who You Are
You’re a recruiter who runs toward hard searches, not away from them. You don’t wait for a hiring manager to tell you the pipeline is thin; you’ve already been building it. You care about candidate experience not because someone told you to, but because you know it directly reflects the company you’re representing.
Specifically, you’re someone who:
Thinks in pipelines , not just requisitions. You’re always sourcing , even when there’s no open role yet.
Owns the outcome. You’re not waiting for candidates to find you. You go get them, passive outreach , creative Boolean searches, referral networks, all of it.
Builds real relationships with hiring managers, not just transactional status updates. You push back when a job description is unrealistic and earn trust by delivering.
Has range. You’re as comfortable recruiting a software engineer as you are a sales rep or a licensed nurse consultant. You learn what good looks like in each function and apply it.
Moves with urgency and doesn’t let candidates go dark. You know a slow process loses great people.
Keeps your house in order. Your ATS is current , your pipelines are documented, and you can tell a hiring manager exactly where every candidate stands without hesitating.
The Role
You’ll own full-cycle hiring for our most strategic and specialized roles — sales, software engineering, product, legal nurse consulting, and marketing — partnering directly with hiring managers and the VP of People to build the team that powers our next phase of growth.
What You’ll Do
Meet with hiring managers to understand what they actually need (not just what’s in the job description) and build a search strategy from there
Source candidates proactively, LinkedIn outreach, networking, referrals, so you’re never starting from zero when a role opens
Keep a live sales talent pipeline at all times; sales is always recruiting, and you’ll be the engine that makes that possible
Screen candidates over the phone, use AI to complete full assessments, and give hiring managers a real recommendation, not just a summary
Coordinate interviews, prep candidates, and keep everyone on track so the process doesn’t slow down unnecessarily
Administer pre-employment assessments for applicable roles and help interpret results alongside the hiring team
Conduct structured reference checks for finalist candidates
Extend and negotiate offers; close candidates with confidence and honesty
Keep SmartRecruiters (our ATS) organized and current, so nothing falls through the cracks
Track your metrics, time-to-fill, source of hire, offer acceptance rate, and use the data to keep improving
Represent Expert Institute well to every candidate, every time, regardless of the outcome
Qualifications
What We’re Looking For
You bring:
At least 2–3 years of full-cycle recruiting experience , either in-house or at an agency
A real track record closing candidates for specialized or technical roles — not just high-volume, easy-to-fill positions
Strong LinkedIn Recruiter skills and comfort with Boolean search and AI tools to make the process efficient
Experience working in an ATS — SmartRecruiters is a plus
Communication skills that work at every level: a skeptical senior candidate, an impatient hiring manager, a nervous new grad
The ability to manage multiple open roles at once without losing detail or momentum on any of them
Even better if you have:
Background in legal tech, SaaS, or professional services
Familiarity with structured pre-employment assessments (Criteria, OMG, Kolbe, or similar)
