You will:
- Own the recruitment lifecycle for assigned roles – from intake to joining.
- Focus mainly on tech positions while also handling non-tech/support hiring depending on business needs.
- Spend a significant portion of your time on proactive sourcing via LinkedIn, job portals, and communities, rather than only relying on direct applicants.

- Complexity and relevance of previous projects
- Communication skills and cultural fit
- Alignment with compensation, notice period, location, and work setup expectations
- Coordinate technical assessments / coding tests / assignments as required and follow up for completion.
- Quickly calibrate profiles with the Recruitment Manager / hiring managers by sharing a first batch of sourced candidates and aligning on what “good” looks like.
- Present shortlisted candidates with structured notes (skills summary, notice period, CTC, reasons for fit, potential risks).
4. Interview Coordination & Process Management
- Schedule interviews with internal stakeholders and/or clients, sharing clear information with candidates (role, panel, format).
- Ensure interviewers have updated resumes, your screening notes, and any test results in advance.
- Keep candidates informed about timelines, feedback expectations, and next steps.
- Collect and record structured feedback from interviewers; update ATS/trackers promptly.
- Escalate bottlenecks or delays to the Recruitment Manager and propose solutions (parallel pipelines, wider search, adjusted criteria, etc.).
5. Offer Management & Joining
- Support the Recruitment Manager / HR in preparing offer details / CTC structures.
- Clearly explain offer components to candidates and handle queries around salary structure, benefits, and role expectations.
- Manage offer negotiation within guidelines and keep candidates engaged until joining (check-ins, documentation support, pre-joining engagement).
- Coordinate with HR operations / onboarding for smooth joining – documentation, systems access, induction schedules.
6. ATS, Reporting & Documentation
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date candidate records in the ATS / trackers – including stages, notes, and communication history.
- Track and report your sourcing funnel metrics, including:
Profiles identified → contacted → responded → screened → shortlisted → interviewed → offered → joined.
- Clearly mark candidates as sourced vs applied to help measure outbound impact.
- Share weekly updates with the Recruitment Manager on open roles, pipeline health, risks, and suggested corrective actions.
7. Market Intelligence & Continuous Improvement
- Stay updated on tech recruitment trends, salary benchmarks, demand-supply patterns, and competitor hiring.
- Share market feedback on challenging roles, skill shortages, or unrealistic expectations with the Recruitment Manager for calibration.
- Suggest improvements in JDs, search strategy, interview process, assessments, and candidate engagement based on your daily experience.
