What does a remote technical recruiter do?

As a remote technical recruiter, your job is to work from home to source, screen, and recruit candidates, typically focusing on hiring for jobs in engineering, product design, and analytics fields. You often work for hiring firms that specialize in finding candidates with the right history for complex projects. For example, providing on-site engineering services to an offshore oil rig isn't the same as welding metal in the middle of a factory, so you must work to understand the actual needs of a position and evaluate candidates accordingly. In this role, you may help cultivate relationships with customers, work with recruiting coordinators to track applicants, explain the recruiting process to customers, and use analytics software to evaluate the performance of the company's current recruitment techniques.
