Recruitment is a key element within any business operation, regardless of industry or size. If a business is looking to grow, change its business strategy or adapt to employees leaving, recruitment is a way of supporting these long-term goals or working through challenges. While some companies may choose to use a traditional recruitment agency or consultancy, they may also hire a corporate recruiter. In this article, we explore what a corporate recruiter is, answer 'What does a corporate recruiter do?' and explain the difference between a corporate recruiter and traditional recruitment.A corporate recruiter is a human resources professional that operates within an organisation's workforce. The role of the corporate recruiter is to find new recruits that suit the requirements of the vacancies they currently have across the business. A corporate recruiter achieves this goal by identifying the current vacancy and matching that against the knowledge, skills and interests of the candidates or applicants they have for the position. Since a corporate recruiter works for a single entity, their employer, they also find applicants who fit the culture of the business and represent the company's best interests.

A recruiter helps connect candidates to roles they're qualified for and helps companies find the right talent for their open positions.

On a day-to-day basis, a recruiter might:

  • Reach out to qualified candidates and ask them if they're interested in applying for a role
  • Review resumes candidates have submitted
  • Have an introductory interview with a candidate
  • Check a candidate's references
  • Provide information about company benefits, salary, and culture
