An accounting recruiter identifies and interviews accounting candidates, builds a database, schedules interviews, and makes job offers. They can work internally or externally and may receive a salary or commission. Internal recruiters are more involved in the hiring process.
An accounting recruiter is responsible for identifying, interviewing, and building a database of accounting candidates with the ultimate goal of hiring those candidates. An accounting recruiter can build their database when trying to find a candidate for a specific job opening or simply build a contact database of accounting and finance professionals.
A recruiter may work internally for a company. In this case, the accounting recruiter is responsible for filling any of the company’s open accounting positions. The recruiter will place job advertisements, review old resumes that were submitted for past accounting jobs, and even ask current employees at the company if they know anyone who meets the requirements to fill the position.
Once the accounting recruiter has identified a pool of candidates for the position, the recruiter will schedule interviews with the candidates. The accounting recruiter will also conduct the initial interview with the candidate. After each of the candidates is interviewed, the accounting recruiter decides who else in the company needs to find and interview the candidates. The accounting recruiter is responsible for scheduling all these interviews, acting as the liaison between candidates and hiring managers.
Once everyone in the company who needs to meet with candidates has done so, the hiring manager must decide which candidate, if any, she wants to make the job offer to. The recruiter is responsible for contacting the candidate to make the job offer. If the offer is accepted, the recruiter puts the offer in writing and sends it to the candidate.
An accounting recruiter can also work for a recruiting firm. Accounting recruiter focuses on hiring accounting and finance professionals for their clients. In this case, your clients are various businesses and companies that have open positions in their accounting and finance departments. Recruiter responsibilities are the same whether they work as an internal or external recruiter. The main difference can be the payment.
Internal recruiters tend to be salaried employees, while some internal recruiters receive salaries plus commissions. Most external recruiters work on commissions, so they only get paid when they place a candidate in a position for a client.
Another difference is that an internal recruiter remains more involved in bringing new employees into the company and setting them up. An external recruiter remains in contact with the candidate and client to ensure a smooth transition, but is not physically at the company making it happen.
