Where Talent Goes The Extra Degree

Build careers. Build relationships. Make an impact.

212° is growing, and we're looking for a Recruiter to join our team as we continue building something different in the staffing and recruiting space.

We're a boutique staffing and recruiting firm built around relationships, accountability, urgency, and going the extra degree for the people and organizations we serve. This opportunity is ideal for an early-career recruiter with approximately 2+ years of recruiting experience who has developed a strong foundation and is ready for more ownership, more opportunity, and a chance to grow alongside a growing company.

We're not looking for someone who simply wants to fill requisitions. We're looking for someone who enjoys finding great people, building genuine relationships, competing to win, and creating an exceptional experience throughout the hiring process.

What You'll Do

As a Recruiter at 212°, you'll manage recruiting activity throughout the full candidate lifecycle while partnering closely with internal leadership and our clients.

You'll be responsible for:

• Managing full-cycle recruiting across assigned searches
• Proactively sourcing and engaging passive and active candidates
• Building targeted talent pipelines through LinkedIn, networking, referrals, databases, and creative sourcing strategies
• Conducting candidate interviews and evaluating qualifications, experience, motivation, compensation, and overall fit
• Developing strong candidate relationships throughout the recruiting process
• Presenting qualified candidates and helping move searches forward with urgency
• Coordinating interviews and maintaining consistent candidate communication
• Supporting offer management and candidate closing
• Delivering a thoughtful, high-touch candidate experience from first contact through placement
• Maintaining accurate candidate and recruiting activity within our ATS
• Managing multiple searches and priorities while remaining organized and accountable
• Continuously building relationships that extend beyond a single search or placement

Who You Are

You're someone who is:

• Competitive - you enjoy setting goals, creating momentum, and seeing results
• Relationship-driven - you understand recruiting is fundamentally a people business
• Self-motivated - you don't need someone constantly telling you what to do next
• Growth-oriented - you're eager to learn, receive feedback, and continue developing your craft
• Organized and comfortable managing multiple priorities
• Naturally curious and willing to dig deeper to understand candidates and clients
• Comfortable with outreach, follow-up, and building relationships with people you've never met
• Accountable for your results and willing to adjust when something isn't working
• Energized by working in a growing, entrepreneurial environment where processes will continue to evolve

Requirements
What We're Looking For

• Approximately 2+ years of recruiting, talent acquisition, staffing, or related experience
• Experience sourcing and engaging candidates through LinkedIn and other recruiting channels
• Experience interviewing and qualifying candidates
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to build rapport and credibility quickly
• Strong organization and follow-through
• Comfort working independently while remaining highly collaborative
• Ability to work in a fast-moving environment with changing priorities
• Staffing agency experience is a plus, but not required
• Experience with an ATS or recruiting technology is preferred

Location & Work Environment

Philadelphia-Based Hybrid Schedule : Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM

We believe flexibility and collaboration can coexist. Our long-term model isn't about sitting in an office five days a week - it's about creating opportunities for the team to work together, learn from one another, and build the business together.

Benefits
Compensation & Benefits

212° believes your work should have a direct impact on your earning potential.

The compensation package will include:

• Competitive base salary + uncapped commissions
• Health benefits, with eligibility beginning the first of the month following 30 days of employment
• Paid Time Off with an increasing accrual schedule based on tenure
• Opportunity to grow professionally as 212° continues to expand

Why 212°?

At 212°, we believe in going the extra degree.

We bring intensity, accountability, and craftsmanship to everything we do. We're building a recruiting company where relationships matter, great work gets noticed, and team members have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the business as it grows.

This isn't about becoming another recruiter in a massive organization.

It's an opportunity to get in early, have a voice, build relationships, develop your craft, and help shape what comes next.

Join a team where talent goes the extra degree.
