We are seeking a Recruitment Sourcing Specialist to focus on the recruitment of direct, full-time employees. This position is part-time and offers some remote work flexibility.

Today, Colony Brands is one of North America's largest and most successful multi-channel direct marketing companies.

Our employees ARE our most important asset. To support them and build continued organizational success, we are seeking a Recruitment Sourcing Specialist to focus on the recruitment of direct, full-time employees. This position is part-time and offers some remote work flexibility.

If you're self-driven and enjoy the challenges, intricacies, and excitement of recruiting in a dynamic business environment – this could be the job for you!

What You'll Do:

We need a lot of people to deliver the excitement we promise our customers, so we do a lot of hiring! To help us deliver on that promise, you'll support our Talent Acquisition Team with strategically sourcing, evaluating, and interviewing candidates for regular, full-time positions.

You'll also be responsible for:

• Actively mining and maneuvering resume databases, Internet search tools, social media platforms, and our applicant tracking system (ATS) for potential candidates using a variety of sourcing methods
• Phone interviewing/screening potential candidates to ensure that they meet basic requirements.
• Understanding job descriptions and desired skills and competencies and applying that information to determine if candidate is a potential fit
• "Cold" calling potential candidates to generate and discern interest
• Ensuring the ATS (Kenexa/BrassRing) is updated appropriately

This role requires a strong, consistent, and empathetic communicator. You must be self-motivated, detail-oriented, and able to productively build relationships. Ideally you will have 2+ years of interviewing and candidate sourcing, and related business experience.

In addition, we are looking for:

• Proven ability to source and engage active and passive candidates via multiple methods
• Exceptional organizational, follow-up, coordination, prioritization, and workload management skills
• Outstanding written and oral communication skills
• Solid PC skills and experience working with the MS Office Suite (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
• A working knowledge of employment laws (both state & federal)

This position offers the flexibility to work at one of our facilities in Monroe or Sun Prairie, WI, Peosta or Clinton, IA. To take advantage of the remote work option, you must have reliable, high-speed internet and appropriate home office ergonomics
