From the employer

Senior Sales Recruiter – High-Volume Sales Hiring

Position Type: Full-Time, Remote
Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Sales Recruiter with a proven track record of recruiting and hiring sales professionals at volume.

This is not a general recruiting role. The ideal candidate has personally sourced, screened, interviewed, and placed salespeople and understands how to evaluate whether a candidate can actually sell—not simply whether their resume matches the job description.

You will own the recruitment pipeline from sourcing through interview coordination while helping identify high-performing sales talent.

Key Responsibilities

Sales Recruiting

  • Recruit sales representatives, sales managers, and other sales professionals at volume.
  • Source candidates through Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and other relevant channels.
  • Prioritize candidates with proven sales performance and relevant experience.
  • Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified sales talent.
  • Recruit for field sales, commission-based, and contractor sales positions.

Sales Screening & Interviews

  • Conduct structured interviews specifically designed to evaluate sales ability.
  • Assess communication, persuasion, motivation, resilience, and sales aptitude.
  • Identify candidates who demonstrate genuine sales capability beyond what is shown on their resume.
  • Evaluate experience, performance history, targets, and ability to succeed in sales environments.
  • Clearly communicate why a candidate is or is not a strong fit.

Recruitment Pipeline Ownership

  • Manage the full recruiting process from sourcing to scheduling client interviews.
  • Maintain accurate candidate and pipeline information using Google Sheets.
  • Coordinate interviews directly on the client's calendar.
  • Follow up consistently with candidates throughout the process.
  • Keep the pipeline organized and moving efficiently.

Reporting & Communication

  • Track sourcing, screening, interviews, and candidate progression.
  • Provide clear updates on pipeline quality and recruiting activity.
  • Communicate proactively with the hiring team.
  • Work independently while maintaining high standards for candidate quality.

Required Experience & Skills

  • Proven experience recruiting and successfully hiring sales professionals.
  • Experience recruiting sales representatives, field sales reps, sales managers, commission-based salespeople, or contractor sales reps.
  • Strong understanding of how to screen and evaluate sales ability.
  • Experience conducting structured candidate interviews.
  • Experience with Indeed and/or ZipRecruiter.
  • Strong Google Sheets skills.
  • Experience managing the recruitment pipeline from sourcing through interview scheduling.
  • Excellent spoken and written English.
  • Strong communication, organization, follow-up, and time-management skills.
  • Ability to work U.S. Eastern Time hours; Central Time availability preferred.

What Makes You a Strong Fit

You are someone who:

  • Has actually hired salespeople, rather than only general corporate or administrative talent.
  • Knows the difference between a candidate who looks good on paper and someone who can actually sell.
  • Is comfortable interviewing candidates about sales performance, targets, objections, and results.
  • Can manage high-volume recruiting without sacrificing candidate quality.
  • Takes ownership of the entire recruiting pipeline.
  • Is proactive, organized, and comfortable working independently.
