Technical Talent Sourcer (Industrial Automation / Controls)
Being a Technical Talent Sourcer is an ideal role for someone who genuinely enjoys connecting with smart people, hearing interesting career stories, and occasionally meeting someone who is completely out of their mind (those make the best stories anyway).
In today’s market, finding top technical talent requires creativity, persistence, curiosity, and the ability to think differently than every other recruiter flooding LinkedIn messages. If you get excited about finding great people where others haven’t looked yet, we should probably talk.
