Find Potential Candidates Recruiters develop creative strategies to identify and source hard-to-find candidates by designing and executing a proactive hiring plan to attract the highest-quality candidates in the shortest amount of time. They source candidates by placing job advertisements online, contacting fellow recruiters, and using local job boards.
Coordinate and Conduct Interviews Scheduling in-person and over-the-phone interviews with candidates is a major part of a recruiter’s role. They also coordinate interviews with the hiring managers they partner with.

Recruiter Education and Training
It’s common for a recruiter to have bachelor’s degree, although some jobs only require a high school diploma.

Candidates with proven experience or certification in web-based application tracking systems may be even more attractive to employers.
