HR Recruiter Role and Responsibilities

HR Recruiter is a very important employee in Human Resources. Following the Recruitment Strategy the HR Recruiter is the employee to decide about the appropriate recruitment and selection procedure to hire a new employee.

This role is very important as the HR Recruiter has a direct impact on the most important aspect of the whole recruitment process:

• Quality of Candidates;
• Time to fill the Vacancy;
• Cost of a New Hire.

The HR Recruiter must be a very clever person to decide about the correct mix of recruitment techniques to satisfy the internal client and to find the right candidate on the job market. The hiring manager always believes to find the best candidate by tomorrow for a zero costs. But in reality it never works this way.

The HR Recruiter must clearly recognize the priorities of the hiring manager and compare them with the recruitment strategy of Human Resources and he/she must decide about the final approach of the selection process. The HR Recruiter must recognize all the skills and competencies required by the hiring manager and to make a final conclusion on using the best working channel for the selected position to get the best fitting candidates at affordable price to the company.

Many times the HR Recruiter can be pressed to change the approach of the selection process, but the employee must use KPIs set for recruitment to argue about the right time to change the selection procedure as the hiring managers will always press to change the process and make it quicker.

The HR Recruiter is not a person conducting just the job interviews, it is the person to really drive the recruitment process in the organization.
