Remote Recruiter Seeking New Opportunities
I’ve spent the last decade working remotely as a recruiter and am currently on the lookout for my next opportunity. Unfortunately, I’ve been receiving little to no responses or rejection emails. I’m wondering if anyone has insights on companies hiring remote recruiters that prioritize personal interviews over AI-driven processes. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

Hi there! It’s great to hear about your extensive experience in remote recruiting. The job market can be really competitive and it’s frustrating to not hear back after applying. Here are a few suggestions that might help you:
Target Smaller Companies: Sometimes smaller companies or startups might not have the resources for automated systems and may prioritize personal touch. Look for companies that value human interaction in their hiring processes.
Network: Leverage your professional network on LinkedIn. Reach out to former colleagues or connections in the industry, let them know you’re looking, and ask if they know of any opportunities.
Join Recruiting Communities: Engage in online groups or forums where recruiters share job postings and opportunities. Websites like Reddit’s r/recruiting or specialized Facebook groups can be helpful.
Tailor Your Applications: Make sure your resume and cover letter are tailored for each application, emphasizing your remote work experience and any specific skills that match the job description.
Direct Outreach: Consider reaching out directly to companies you’re interested in on LinkedIn. A direct message to someone in HR can sometimes bypass the automated application process.
Recruitment Agencies: Some agencies specialize in recruitment positions. They may be able to connect you with companies looking for recruiters.
I hope you find these suggestions helpful! Good luck with your job search!
