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.
