Recruiter
Clackamas, OR
Posted November 16, 2020
Full-time, Permanent, 8am to 5pm, M-F
If you have a proven track record of success in retail management, the service industry or hospitality and are looking for a job that will challenge you, offer you professional growth and development, and allow you a better work-life balance, we want to speak with you!
Currently, TERRA's Clackamas office is seeking an exceptional
customer-service-driven individual to join their recruiting team.
The Truth About Retail Management:
The hours are long. You rarely get holidays or weekends off. You barely have any time to spend with your family or friends. Plus, being on your feet all day is exhausting. Quite frankly, the job hijacks your life.
But there’s a great career waiting for you, that you may not have thought of – recruiting.
Recruiting is a great next step if you would like to transition away from retail management. It takes all of the skills and experience you have worked hard to gain, without you having to take a big step backward or start all over.
Plus, did we mention you won’t work on weekends or holidays?!
Snapshot of Recruiter Life at TERRA
Just like you helped customers find exactly what they were looking for when they stepped into your store, as a Recruiter you’ll help find the right fit between a job seeker and a company.
You will use your customer service and relationship-building skills to make outbound sales calls, source and interview job applicants, and respond to customer demand.
Relationships with job seekers and businesses don’t end when you make a placement. Successful recruiters stay in touch, mine relationships for additional opportunities and turn one-time placements into repeat business.
Building your book of business will take hard work and dedication, but TERRA has systems and processes in place to support you while you learn. With patience, time and support from your close-knit team, you’ll be on the path to success in no time.
Making the Transition to Recruiter
As with any new job, taking that next step can be scary – you’re not sure what to expect. This role will require you to learn new systems and processes outside of the retail industry.
In retail, you’re on your feet most of the day, but as a recruiter, it will be quite different.
While you find yourself going on sales meetings and to client sites to meet with employees and on-site supervisors, a majority of the time, you will be working behind a desk.
You will also be working heavily with computers and technology. We don’t expect you to be a computer expert, but a willingness and desire to learn is a must.
We offer unparalleled training and are happy to share our staffing knowledge with driven individuals unfamiliar with the staffing industry. You will have support from peers, management and executive management along the way.
Here’s what we are doing to keep our employees safe from COVID-19:
- Enhanced cleaning protocols
- Social Distancing
- Masks required (and provided)
- Utilize technology and virtual meetings when possible to minimize exposure to the public
Compensation and Benefits
We offer incentive-based compensation, and you will see a direct correlation between your work and your pay. In other words: you write your own paycheck!
Benefits include: medical, dental, vision, 401K with generous match, 8 paid holidays, paid community service option, and 3 weeks of PTO.
