  • Source candidates through active and passive channels, applying sourcing strategies developed with the Senior Recruiter or Manager.
  • Conduct phone screens and structured interviews, and schedule and coordinate your own candidate interviews.
  • Support offer discussions and negotiations, helping close candidates alongside the Senior Recruiter or Manager.
  • Maintain timely, professional communication with candidates throughout the recruitment process.
  • Partner with hiring managers to understand requisition needs and provide pipeline updates.
  • Partner with the TA Senior Operations Specialist for a smooth handoff from offer acceptance through the new hire's first day.
  • Maintain accurate candidate data and documentation in the Applicant Tracking System (ATS), including statuses, feedback, interview stages, and disposition information.
  • Develop an understanding of federal hiring environments and how security clearance requirements shape sourcing and screening.
