- Review and evaluate all incoming applicants on assigned positions and take action (connect/interview/disqualify). Communicate!
- Perform comprehensive research and identify the best and most relevant talent for your searches. Document this data in a presentable way using Excel/Google Sheets and our internal ATS (this data is critical to the success of the search!).
