Key Responsibilities

1. Sourcing & Pipeline Building

- Own LinkedIn Recruiter / Sales Navigator - run Boolean searches for all open roles using sourcing briefs already prepared by the hiring manager

- Identify and approach candidates at priority target brands

- Write and send personalised InMail and connection request messages; each outreach should reference the candidate's brand and role

- Build and maintain a live pipeline tracker for each of the open roles with candidate status, last contact date, and next action

- Source across multiple channels: LinkedIn, Naukri, Instahyre, referrals, and direct headhunting from target brand career pages

2. Screening & Assessment

- Conduct first-level phone screens using structured screener question guides prepared for each role

- Evaluate candidates against role-specific must-haves, red flags, and target brand backgrounds defined in the sourcing briefs

- Provide a written assessment of each screened candidate - not just a summary, but a hire / hold / pass recommendation with rationale

- Manage candidate documentation: CV, current CTC, expected CTC, notice period, and reason for looking

3. Interview Coordination & Process Management

- Schedule and coordinate all interview rounds - screener, deep dive, scenario round, and assignment review

- Send role-specific interview briefs and assignments to candidates at the right stage

- Collect structured feedback from interviewers after each round using the scoring rubrics provided; follow up within 24 hours of each interview

- Maintain candidate communication

4. Offer & Onboarding Support

- Prepare and send offer letters in coordination with HR; manage negotiation conversations professionally

- Track notice period timelines and maintain a joining date dashboard for all accepted offers

- Coordinate pre-joining touchpoints - welcome communication, document collection, and Day 1 schedule, to reduce offer drop-offs

5. Reporting & Governance

- Update the MRF Tracker weekly with pipeline status, interview stage, & projected closing date for each role

- Report to the Hiring Heads weekly: roles filled, roles open, pipeline health, time-to-interview, & blockers

- Flag bottlenecks proactively. If a role has seen 40 approaches with zero qualified candidates, raise it and propose a sourcing strategy adjustment
