Quarterbacks, Catchers, & Point Guards – Become an ESC Recruiter

If you played any of these positions with success you may have the qualities we seek.  Competitiveness, leadership, communication, hard work, attention to detail and the ability to think on your feet are all attributes of the individuals that have played these positions.  Consequently these qualities also make very successful recruiters.  Regardless of your work history or area of study we are interested to explore the backgrounds of those that have played QB, catcher or point guard.   You may not have thought of this, but if you played any of these positions you should consider becoming a recruiter in the staffing arena.  Educated Solutions Corp. (ESC) is a staffing firm based in Brookfield, WI that originated in 1997.  We offer contract, contract for hire and direct placement services, as well as consulting for all things recruiting, hiring, and staffing.  We do NOT specialize, we instead use our strong recruiting model to hire “everything” in the way of skill sets.  We are a $10M firm that is ripe for more growth.  We NEED recruiters… and will train from the ground up.

Per the above ESC has grown by hiring “good people” and while we would love to hire qualified recruiters the market is not yielding.  We have had high success in hiring “career changers,” notably QBs, catchers and point guards, and train these individuals to become excellent recruiters.

ESC Recruiters work with all types of people in all types of skill sets.  The goal of the recruiter position is to find individuals seeking new opportunities, screen for qualifications, and place them into contract and full time roles across the nation, primarily in the Midwest.  We gain applicants, but this delivers only a limited amount of our candidate pool.  Sourcing through our internal system and using a variety of online resources is how we find candidates, but then screening takes strong COMMUICATION skills.  We also have a variety of online testing tools which we use to determine if candidates are qualified to take on specific roles for ESC.  Beyond finding and screening candidates recruiters also maintain our contract staff, keeping them happy, by assuring their daily work and career path is strong.  This is truly a “people person” role, AND one that takes LEADERSHIP and a great phone presence.

Here are the qualifications and targets for this role:

• Bachelor’s degree is a MUST and is preferred to have been received between 2010 and 2018
• Exemplary Communications skills.
• Strong technology skills – Navigating job sites, ATS, ability to revise resumes, write candidate profiles and a type while you talk mentality… fast and efficient.
• Independence – the ability to self-start and motivate yourself to work hard every day for as long as you need to get your job done.
• Sales mentality – having the ability to sell candidates on the positive aspects of companies and jobs.
• High Common Sense – the ability to deal with situations on the fly and juggle multiple things at once… all resulting in high success.
• Likeability – it’s a people job and if you represent ESC you need people at all levels to like you and desire to work with you daily.
• Attention to Detail – emails, resumes, profiles - high quality and flawless – it’s on you to do what your candidates can not.
• Trainability – we NEED you to be open to doing things the ESC way and always striving to get better.

If you played quarterback, catcher or point guard we would like to review your resume and tell you more about this role… please apply at:  www.educatedsolutionscorp.com or email Mike Schmidt, ESC’s owner, directly at mschmidt@educatedsolutionscorp.com.

More detail:

Training - To get our Career Changers where they need to be it takes time… about 7 months.  We do intense 1on1 training for 4 weeks and then expect 6 months of on the job training.  After these 7 months “wherever, whenever and however” comes into play… just get the job done. 

Flexibility - ESC was built on a “Work From Home” model.  You CAN do this job with a laptop, internet access, access to job sites and a smartphone.  ESC provides them all.  To begin we do ask that individuals learn the ESC way and this takes exposure, in office, to our experienced staff.  However, upon successful completion of training Recruiters are able to work from home with a productivity first model.  In essence, if you produce quality candidates for ESC roles you can work whenever and wherever you choose.  It should be noted that you will need to meet candidates and will use our offices to do so.  This amounts to a few days, based on your schedule, in the office each week.  ESC’s office space is located in Brookfield, but we do have plans to open offices in IL and Madison WI soon.  ESC offers the highest flexibility and work life balance of any staffing entity.

Compensation - We start all new hires with a salary+draw+commission compensation plan.  This is a salaried role as “punch a time clock – hourly” is NOT how we operate.  The flexibility needs to work both ways and sometimes an off hour interview is required.  Again, whatever it takes.  Starting salary is based on past compensation history, total years, and type of past work experience. ESC offers a full benefits package, 401K, and profit sharing.

Career Path - The career path of this Career Changer role is to become a Recruiter/Account Manager for ESC.  Once trained as a successful ESC Recruiter we want all recruiters to manage accounts.  The craziest fact about ESC is that we don’t have a true sales force.  We deliver quality staffing services that have allowed us to grow through building existing accounts and referrals that earn us new business.  Every experienced team member acts as both a Recruiter and an Account Manager.  If you have the right drive, sense of urgency, strong problem solving skills and VERY, VERY good communication skills we feel we can make you into a successful Recruiter/Account Manager.
