Recruiter Jobs in Waltham, MA

A Recruiter plays a critical role in the human resources industry, where they are responsible for identifying, attracting, and shortlisting candidates for the recruitment process in response to the needs of the organization. They help to streamline the hiring process by sourcing candidates, performing initial interviews, and coordinating the hiring process with hiring managers. Recruiters often use applicant tracking systems and other recruiting software to manage candidates throughout the recruitment process.

Important skills for a Recruiter include excellent communication and negotiation skills, decision-making ability, and knowledge of recruitment software and databases.
