Freelance Recruiter

We are a fast-growing growth marketing & paid media agency working with multiple D2C brands. We hire across roles like media buyers, creative strategists, designers, editors, account managers, developers, HR, and finance.

We are looking for a Freelance Recruiter who can build and maintain a strong, always-on talent pipeline, not someone who just forwards random resumes.

As a Freelance Recruiter, you will be responsible for creating a structured hiring pipeline, qualifying candidates properly, and ensuring we always have pre-vetted talent ready across roles.

This is a long-term partnership, not a one-off hiring task.

• Build and maintain a continuous talent pipeline across roles
• Source candidates using multiple channels (not just job portals)
• Create role-wise candidate pools (Media Buyers, Designers, Strategists, etc.)

• Use structured qualification frameworks (experience, skill depth, results, culture fit)
• Conduct initial screening calls and filter low-quality candidates
• Share only shortlisted, pre-qualified profiles

• Maintain a clean hiring tracker with:
• Role
• Source
• Stage
• Notes
• Expected salary
• Availability
• Suggest improvements to hiring workflows and screening questions
• Coordinate interviews smoothly with our internal team

• Source talent from platforms like:
• LinkedIn (active & passive candidates)
• Naukri / Instahyre / Hirist (where relevant)
• Niche communities (Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, Telegram groups)
• Build referral-driven and community-based sourcing channels

• 2+ years of recruitment experience (agency or startup hiring preferred)
• Strong understanding of digital marketing, D2C, tech, and creative roles
• System-driven recruiter (trackers, pipelines, qualification stages)
• Ability to say no to bad candidates
• Strong communication and expectation-setting skills

• Payment structure can be:
• Monthly retainer OR
• Per-hire success fee OR
• Hybrid model (retainer + success bonus)
