Talent Acquisition Specialist - Full-Cycle Execution

We are looking for Virtual Professionals based in the Philippines.
This is a fully remote position for the role of Talent Acquisition Specialist – Full-Cycle Execution.

• Applications with an introduction video attached will be prioritized.
  Due to the fully remote nature of this role, it is important that candidates are comfortable communicating on video calls.

Role Summary

You will own the candidate lifecycle from sourcing to offer closure, ensuring that every role is filled with the right candidate on time.

You operate independently, balancing multiple hiring requirements, and maintaining a smooth, professional candidate experience.

Your focus is on closing loops: no candidate is left hanging, no interview is uncoordinated, and no role is delayed due to administrative gaps.

Filtering signal: This role is not for candidates who require daily supervision or struggle to prioritize multiple hiring pipelines simultaneously.

• Prepare interview kits and briefing notes for hiring managers
• Track each candidate’s status in the ATS and ensure all steps are completed in sequence

• Stay updated on sourcing channels, industry trends, and best practices in recruitment

Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

• Execution & Ownership: Capable of independently managing multiple requisitions without reminders
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal English for client-facing and internal messaging

• Organization: Detail-oriented, able to track dozens of moving parts in parallel

Tools

• Anticipating scheduling conflicts and preventing no-shows
• Delivering candidates to hiring managers with complete context for decision-making

What This Role Is NOT

• Not a passive posting/administrative role; proactive sourcing and execution required

• Not for those who cannot communicate clearly with candidates and hiring managers
• Not for candidates who require daily supervision or step-by-step instructions
• Not for individuals who do not follow-through on tasks and close loops consistently
