Recruiter

Principal Accountabilities of the Position :

To assist in accomplishing the goals and objectives of the office by exercising multi-tasking, decision making, and problem-solving skills.

Role of the Recruiter

The Recruiter – the inside sales person – in a Summit Employment office plays a vital role because the Recruiter is the link between both the client companies and the associates (temporary employees). The Recruiter consistently exercises discretionary judgment in administering Summit Employment systems and procedures in recruiting, hiring, and assigning associates to clients within the franchise territory. The Recruiter is also responsible for retaining qualified associates and for inside sales, including responsibility for increasing sales and hours by making telephone sales calls for a portion of each day.

If a Recruiter can assign a high percentage of associates and keep a greater number of associates working longer, the results are increased revenue, reduced recruiting costs, and better service to clients.

Clients appreciate and come back for quality service. The Recruiter takes the job order, assigns the associate, and follows up to ensure client satisfaction. The quality of service causes a client company to select one staffing service over another.

Service is based on people, and people are never perfect. However, a good Recruiter can smooth out difficulties resulting from human imperfections and assure both quality and quantity in terms of associates and assignments.
