Needs to hire 2 Freelancers
Summary

We're a fast-growing U.S. home services company and we hire constantly. Right now we have more applicants than we can call back — and good candidates are going cold while they wait. We need one reliable Recruiting Assistant to fix that. What you'll do daily: Review new applicants and sort them by fit Contact candidates by text, email, and phone — fast Run a short screening script and log the answers Book qualified candidates onto our hiring managers' calendars Send interview reminders so people actually show up Keep the CRM clean and every candidate stage accurate Follow up with candidates who went quiet Send a short end-of-day recap You're a fit if you: Speak and write clear, professional English (you'll talk to U.S. candidates every day) Are relentlessly organized and follow up without being reminded Are comfortable on the phone and don't get discouraged by no-answers Have reliable high-speed internet, a backup connection, a headset, and a quiet space Can work U.S. Pacific business hours Bonus: recruiting, HR, staffing, appointment setting, or customer service experience. CRM experience (GoHighLevel, Bullhorn, Workable, or similar) is a plus — not required, we train. What we offer: $5.00/hr USD, paid weekly through Upwork, on time, every week Full-time hours available and steady long-term work — not a one-off project Raises based on performance, not tenure Real path to Senior Recruiter / Team Lead — we promote from within Paid training, written SOPs, and direct access to leadership TO APPLY — follow this exactly: Start your proposal with the word PIPELINE (we filter out anything without it) In 3–4 sentences, tell us about your phone or customer-facing experience — skip the generic pitch Tell us your available hours per week and your time zone Optional, but it moves you to the top: attach a 60-second voice or video intro We're reviewing proposals daily and interviewing within 48 hours. Long-term seat, starting now. Send your proposal — let's talk this week.
