TECHNICAL RECRUITER - SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, IT, & INFOSEC

As a Think Cosmopolitan recruiter, you will run a full desk with a variety of duties and responsibilities focused on the sourcing, screening, interviewing, and onboarding of top talent candidates to fill mission critical positions.  In many cases, you are the candidates’ first encounter with Think Cosmopolitan and it’s your job to represent the company with professionalism, pride, and enthusiasm.  At Think Cosmopolitan, we work in teams and focus on collaboration yet require a high degree of autonomy.  So while you’re not expected to simply go-it-alone, you are expected to show initiative, take responsibility, and run with tasks to completion.

RESPONSIBILITIES:  

Your day-to-day routine will change often as hiring priorities shift, but there’s a basic set of activities you can expect to run with daily.  A typical day can and will consist of the following:

• Meeting with your client groups to discuss headcount, new requisitions, hiring strategy, and/or interview feedback – you truly act as a partner to your clients and not merely as an order taker
• Screening candidates who apply to our requisitions – as the Think Cosmopolitan name brand grows, our job postings continue to fill up with stellar candidates
• Sourcing candidates on sites such as LinkedIn, Stack Overflow, and Git Hub – often the best candidates are the ones not actively looking
• Discussing candidates you’ve screened with your client groups and recommending top candidates for interviews
• Giving tours to candidates before their onsite interview – with the majority of project production taking place in our Los Angeles facility, this is a chance to showcase all the exciting things going on at Think Cosmopolitan and bring to life the opportunity to work here
• Attending interviews alongside your client groups to act as another set of eyes and ears in evaluating candidates
• Once candidates are approved for hire, you’ll begin the HR onboarding process including initiating background checks, completing reference checks, negotiating offer packages including extending offer letters, and issuing new hire paperwork – you’ll have plenty of support from the HR, Benefits, and Compensation departments to make this process as seamless as possible

No day is the same here and the pace moves fast, but ultimately your job is to effectively attract, organize, and manage your pipeline of the country’s most talented individuals to help advance the development of Think Cosmopolitan!
