What You’ll Need to Be Successful
- 1-3 years of experience in a sourcing or recruiter role (agency or in-house), ideally in a tech or digital consultancy environment.
- Strong understanding of technical roles and terminologies (you don’t need to code, but you know your front-end from your back-end).
- Proven success in identifying and engaging passive candidates.
- Experience using sourcing tools like LinkedIn Recruiter and other platforms.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment.
