  • Generate weekly reports on candidate pipeline, source quality, and time-in-stage metrics
  • Support documentation of workflows and recruiting SOPs
  • Maintain shared dashboards or reports in alignment with TA strategy
  • Meet weekly with the Talent Acquisition Manager to align on priorities and process updates, and discuss blockers and solutions
