(Specialist) Recruiters:
Recruiters who just handle the relationship side of staffing- consult with hiring
managers and communicate directly with candidates. They may not do the
sourcing. They understand company business strategy, requirements and plans
and can connect staffing processes to them. They conduct interviews and help
craft offers for the hiring manager. (Sp) Recruiters 'case load' is typically 30-35
openings with nearly the same number of (hiring manager) clients. The clients are
usually a business unit or specific functions within a business unit. They are
familiar with technology tools used by Sourcers and may be at home in a
networking meeting, a career fair or an online database but their time is primarily
spent cultivating the hiring manager relationship and managing the selection
rather than the sourcing activities. Recruiters are assigned (mostly) exempt
positions up to the director level ($200,000) but wouldn't flinch if asked to find a
solution to filling a particularly difficult Board members' assistant slot. Ninety
percent of positions handled by recruiters are for Business, Scientific,
Engineering or other Technical functions (with or without supervision) but, all
require an understanding and knowledge of specialty skills, related industries and
company core competencies.

Not all of our recruiters are "Specialist" recruiters - we have a dedicated team of Executive
Recruiters who handle more of the higher level, strategic requisitions - they are more aligned to
the business units and are seen more as a strategic partner - however, they do all their own
sourcing with some assistance from 3rd party vendors, when necessary. The rest of our recruiters
are full life cycle - working with clients, sourcing (bringing in 3rd party vendors when necessary)
and managing the entire process from opening of requisition through hire.
•
Our recruiters are actually HR Generalists with full recruiting responsibilities for the operating unit
they support. Generally, about 50% of time is spent on recruiting.
•
At M, Recruiters also source using the tools identified by the Sourcing team and agreed to by
Recruiting. In addition, our Recruiters are handling a far greater number of reqs (2-3 times the
number listed). In addition, we have a separate team of Recruiters who handle non-exempt
positions and they conduct their own sourcing
•
I think there is a mix. I consider myself a full cycle but do have ability to use a sourcer (rarely) and
I do have a coordinator who helps with on-boarding. I do most of the whole thing however. We do
have 1 sourcer per team and she may help one or wo other recruiters more heavily since she is in
their location and near them.
•
We do not create the actual paper offers, but do create the salary/offer they will get and often
negotiate it. Also, another major focus at our company is University Relations (hiring
Undergraduates and MBA's, etc., managing the campus teams, coordinating details across this
playing field).
•
Our Specialists don't manage as many hiring manager relationships. It's impossible to build the
kind of relationships we expect if they are working with more than 15 managers at any given time.
•
At T we are broken into 4 types of recruiters based on business areas they serve. In one we
combine the Specialist and the Full Life Cycle for our recruiter duties. Another is more Full Life
Cycle, Executive and Corporate are More Specialists.

(Specialist) Sourcers:
Sourcers (or Sorcerers if you prefer) find, track and initially screen candidates by
using the telephone, fax, internet, print directories, rolodex contacts, specialty
databases (company, third part, online and otherwise), referrals, google, bumper
stickers, and whatever else is at hand. Sourcers produce viable candidates in a
timely fashion for final screening and selection by Recruiters and Hiring
Managers. Sourcers are knowledgeable about finding, vetting and engaging
candidates at an initial level. Typically sourcers are aligned by function and matrix
across business units to support multiple Recruiters. Sourcers may support as
many as 70-80 active openings.

We partner with Senior Leaders to understand talent acquisition needs for the future and source a
candidate pipeline accordingly. Establish long term relationships with external potential candidates
in talent areas we know we'll need to recruit into over the next few years.
•
The variety of technical positions results in a lower average. Currently, it is between 20 - 30 per
candidate researcher.
•
We currently do not have a sourcing team - we are considering this approach for later in 2006
•
Dedicated sourcers are usually contract employees, either full- or part-time.
•
I use contract sourcing only.
•
Our sourcers also handle direct sourcing, event management and vendor management.
•
We don't have traditional sourcers, as we use a lot of agencies and major search firms, however,
the description sounds accurate otherwise.
•
We have direct sourcing teams - aligned by line of business. Sourcers will conduct prequalification screening and manage/expert in contact management systems

(Full Life Cycle) Recruiters: Some recruiters simply do it all. They partner with HR
and client divisions or functions to establish solid SLAs for the year. Acting on the
approved requisitions or operating off the business plan they Source prospects,
Screen Candidates, Facilitate the Hiring Manager's Applicant Selection and
Participate in Onboarding activities. They will typically handle a smaller load than
specialists.

Don't necessarily participate in the onboarding of each person.
•
yes - with exception of dedicated Executive recruiting team as mentioned above.
•
Our full-time dedicated recruiters are Corporate (shared services) and assigned to operating units
to assist in times of peak hiring needs.
•
We all do have a coordinator to pick up when the offer has been accepted.
•
Sounds like the right description to me and we do have these out in our strategic business units.
•
Ours are full life cycle recruiters who do everything the specialist does plus source. They handle
the same work load that a specialist would.
•
This Full cycle mirrors our executive recruiting staff more so than our general staff.
•
They are expected to do the sourcing component too but many don't.
•
It is what are recruiters do, however we have a much higher requisition load.
On average 45-65 at any given time.
