Contract Recruiter – High-Volume Industrial Staffing

About the Opportunity

212° Titans is partnering with an established industrial organization in the Coatesville, PA area to hire a Contract Recruiter to support an immediate, high-volume hiring initiative.

This is an excellent opportunity for an agency recruiter with experience in industrial or light industrial staffing who enjoys a fast-paced environment, thrives on candidate interaction, and knows how to move applicants efficiently through the recruiting process.

Our client is preparing to onboard approximately 200 employees for a major project, creating an immediate need for a recruiter who can manage significant applicant volume, conduct structured prescreens, coordinate next steps, and keep the hiring pipeline moving.

With a strong flow of incoming applications already established, this position is focused primarily on candidate screening, qualification, scheduling, and recruiting coordination, rather than traditional cold sourcing.

Key Responsibilities

• Review and process a high volume of incoming applications for industrial, skilled trades, and related positions.
  

• Conduct structured phone prescreens to assess candidate qualifications, relevant experience, availability, compensation expectations, and overall job fit.
  

• Manage approximately 20–30 candidate conversations daily while maintaining an organized and responsive recruiting process.
  

• Screen candidates for positions such as welders, fitters, ironworkers, laborers, and other industrial or skilled trades roles.
  

• Coordinate candidate interviews, scheduling, and next steps with recruiters and hiring managers.
  

• Prepare clear, accurate candidate summaries and document screening outcomes.
  

• Maintain up-to-date candidate records, recruiting activity, and pipeline statuses within the applicant tracking system.
  

• Assist with offer preparation, onboarding coordination, background checks, drug screenings, and required safety documentation.
  

• Monitor recruiting activity, candidate progression, and outstanding follow-up items.
  

• Deliver a positive, professional candidate experience while supporting aggressive hiring timelines.
  

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications:

• 1–2+ years of recruiting experience, ideally within a staffing agency environment.
  

• Experience recruiting for industrial, light industrial, manufacturing, warehouse, skilled trades, or similar high-volume positions.
  

• Proven ability to manage significant application volume and conduct efficient, effective candidate prescreens.
  

• Strong phone communication skills and confidence speaking with numerous candidates throughout the day.
  

• Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple candidates simultaneously.
  

• Experience using applicant tracking systems and maintaining accurate recruiting records.
  

• Ability to work independently, prioritize competing deadlines, and adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment.
  

• Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications.
  

• Ability to work onsite in Coatesville, PA, Monday through Friday, from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM.
  

Preferred Qualifications:

• Previous experience in high-volume industrial or light industrial staffing.
  

• Familiarity with skilled trades recruiting, including welding, fabrication, construction, or manufacturing positions.
  

• Experience coordinating interviews, onboarding documentation, and pre-employment screening.
  

• Familiarity with BambooHR or comparable applicant tracking systems.
  

• Bilingual English/Spanish communication skills.
  

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• Competitive Hourly Pay: $25–$30/hour, depending on experience.
  

• Immediate Opportunity: Join an active hiring initiative with substantial recruiting needs.
  

• Consistent Schedule: Full-time, Monday–Friday hours.
  

• High-Impact Work: Help support a major project requiring approximately 180 new employees.
  

• Established Applicant Flow: Focus on screening, qualifying, and advancing candidates rather than building an applicant pipeline from scratch.
  

• Collaborative Team: Work alongside experienced recruiting professionals in a supportive, fast-paced environment.
  

• Potential Extension: Initial assignment expected through mid-to-late March 2027, with the possibility of continuing based on project needs.
