Job description

Federal Markets Contract Recruiter (1099 Contract)

Must be US-Based with Federal Contracting experience (DOD/DHS/IC Agencies)

Remote, #Workfromhome

·       Are you the type of recruiter who likes the thrill of the hunt?

·       Can you demonstrate success in recruiting cleared technical and functional talent for DOD, DHS, and/or the Intelligence Community?

·       Are you skilled in sourcing through multiple channels and networking with candidates to build a slate of qualified candidates for your clients?

·       Do you have exceptional candidate control and know how to qualify and close?


If so, we may have just the opportunity you've been looking for!

@Orchard is a Federal Contractor and provider of commercial talent acquisition solutions to Federal Contractors. Owing to the growth in demand, @Orchard has an opening to add a contract recruiter to our team, who has a track record of success supporting technical recruiting within the Federal market, including cleared opportunities. If you have agency, RPO or have worked in a fast-turn contractor, where speed to market matters, we should talk. We are looking for recruiters who are motivated and agile, and understand the mantra that every client need is critical and time-sensitive. 
Responsibilities:

  • Proactively go-to-market with active opportunities, which include cold-calling and networking with candidates, not just email from a search or waiting for applicants.
  • Source, screen, qualify, and close talent against specific requirements to be delivered quickly to our clients or for @Orchard to engage.
  • Create a positive candidate experience through professional and transparent communication while ensuring the candidate is accurately assessed for viability against the need.
  • Track all activity within our applicant tracking system (ATS) to ensure we remain compliant and that data is preserved for future reference.
  • Track progress against recruiting goals and client projects in recruiting spreadsheets or tools
  • Develop and execute a personal time management plan to effectively support and manage a variety of client hiring needs
  • Develop and maintain solid networks of candidates and foster strong client relationships

 
Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of Federal recruiting experience with an emphasis on candidate sourcing and screening for DOD, DHS, or IC Agencies.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage candidates throughout the hiring lifecycle and to track actions within the ATS consistent with company policy. 
  • Strong written and oral communication skills
  • Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information
  • Self-starter with the ability to work independently with minimal supervision
  • Recruiting experience in a high-intensity recruiting environment where speed to action and mental agility are essential competencies.
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate and support colleagues to ensure the client receives the most effective results from @Orchard as a whole.

This is a 1099 contract position of an open-ended nature, driven by performance and customer demand. Hourly rates will vary based on your directly relevant experience and results. The rate range is expected to be $35-50 per hour.

@Orchard is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, or protected veteran status, and will not be discriminated against based on disability.
