About the Recruiting Coordinator role

The Recruiting Coordinator is who keeps the process running without friction: scheduling interviews, following up with candidates, and keeping the ATS current while recruiters and hiring managers focus on evaluating.

It is a common entry point into a recruiting career, and on high-volume teams it is the role that keeps candidates from getting lost between stages.
