Recruiter for boutique retained firm - home based (home based)
We are a boutique retained recruiting firm that has been based in
Berkeley for nearly 20 years but we recently sold the building and now
everyone is working from home. That said, we still need someone in the
Bay Area because this person will need to train in either Berkeley or
San Francisco for a few weeks and we have bi-monthly team building
meetings.
Our clients are predominately start-ups in high-tech, retail, consumer products, and financial services. We do quite a lot of work with PE/VC firms as well. The positions range from entry level up to the "C" suite but the bulk of the work is at the VP level. We do quite a lot of work in Sales, Marketing, Product Management, Digital Marketing, eCommerce, and Product Development, HR, and more. Other than entry level engineers, we work on most everything else.
We are looking for an experienced Recruiter who can take a search and run with it, with very little supervision.
The ideal candidate should have experience managing client relationships. This can be a mid-level recruiter or a senior Recruiter. While business development isn't required it would be ideal and the compensation is much more lucrative if you bring in work. We pay a base, bonuses for each hire, and sales commissions. Compensation is based on seniority.
Office hours are 9:00 to 5:00 unless we are busy then you may be expected to work longer hours. Everyone has the option to take off at 3:00 on Friday. This person can work a flexible schedule, even part-time, provided it is a set schedule.
Responsibilities:
• Source top level talent using both traditional and creative recruiting methods.
• Leverage recruiting resources including social networking, online search tools and cold calling.
• Review resumes and credentials for appropriate skills, experience and knowledge in relation to position requirements.
• Write position descriptions.
• Conduct interviews to qualify candidates.
• Manage and coordinate all communication with candidates and clients.
• Provide excellent customer service and client management.
• Develop the search strategy, write the target list, and provide client and management reporting.
• Negotiate offers.
• If interested, manage client relationship and bring in new business.
Requirements:
• We don't specialize in an industry so you MUST be a quick learner.
• Common sense and critical thinking skills are essential.
• A good "gut" is very important.
• At least 3 years' experience in full-cycle recruiting but not more than 15 years.
• Knowledge of consumer products, retail, high tech, and/or financial services industries a plus.
• Solid PHONE recruiting skills - we do not comb LinkedIn or cruise job boards
• Executive recruiting experience would be nice. Mustn't be intimidated by "C" level execs.
• Excellent internet research and recruiting skills are important.
• 60+ wpm typing speed and outstanding experience using ATS, internet tools, MS Office
-- to say you must be tech Savvy is an understatement!!
• Drive, tenacity and confidence are keys to success.
• Enthusiasm, open-mindedness and accuracy are required.
• A solid work ethic and a no bullshit attitude fit our culture best.
Education:
BS/BA - a MUST
If you can't stick in a position longer than a year or two don't bother applying. No Job Hoppers Please!!
Our clients expect perfection and we deliver. We work out tails off and we have extremely high standards.
On the flip side, we truly value a live/work balance. We don't work long hours and never on weekends.
