  • Identify, engage, and manage candidates through the recruitment process
  • Utilize qualitative and quantitative data to influence decisions and continuously improve our overall effectiveness
  • Actively maintain and improve HRT’s internal recruiting database & CRM tool 
  • Maintain and develop relationships with passive candidates 

Profile
