I
am
often
asked
to
describe
the
perfect
profile
of
qualities
and
characteristics
of an
in-house
senior
recruiter.
There
is no
such
thing!
Aside
from
just
good
old-fashioned
hard
work,
recruiting
is
more
art
than
science
and
therefore
can
sustain
little,
if
any,
predictability
-- a
fundamental
requirement
for
profiling.
There IS,
however,
a
near-perfect
profile
for
the
position
of
senior
corporate
recruiter.
What
follows
is a
Job
Description
I have
used
over
the
years
when
building
staffing
teams
at
client
companies.
It has
been
gleaned
from
'stuff'
I
picked
up
from
client
companies,
numerous
experiences,
discussions,
observations,
and
performance
management
coaching.
It has
been
tested
predictable
and
consistent,
anecdotally,
over
many
years
of
use.
It is not perfect but might be a good start if you need to hire an inside Corporate Recruiter and don't have a job description. Use wisely and freely. I stole most of it from living the life of an observant recruiter, so I can't lay claim to any exclusivity! Consider it still under construction and add your 2 cents worth then share it with me via a quick email message. See Contact Form.
