Job Generation: Work closely with project managers and department heads to proactively identify upcoming vacancies and initiate job requisitions.
- Candidate & Feedback Management: Track candidate interviews, collect hiring manager feedback, and relay insights back to our recruitment team to enhance placement success.
- Workforce Planning Support: Monitor workforce requirements on-site and alert the recruitment office of upcoming needs.
- HR Documentation Support: Assist with maintaining interview logs, job descriptions, and other hiring-related documents as needed.
- General HR Support: Provide administrative support related to hiring activities, onboarding coordination, and other HR processes.
