Build Careers. Change Lives. Grow Yours.
Are you a driven, competitive communicator who thrives in a fast-paced environment where your effort directly translates into success? HeadHunting Inc. is growing — and we're looking for a high-performing Healthcare Recruiter to join our team, supporting clients and candidates across both Canada and the United States.
This is a full-cycle, sales-driven recruiting role. Every call, conversation, and placement you make directly impacts patient care across two countries. This isn't just recruiting — it's recruiting with purpose.
Please note: This is a sales-driven recruiting role, not a Human Resources position. Success is measured by your ability to source, engage, recruit, and place healthcare professionals while building long-term relationships.
What You'll Do
-
Own the full recruitment cycle — sourcing, qualifying, closing, and offer negotiation for RNs, LPNs, RPNs, and allied health professionals across Canada and the US
-
Make 60–100+ outbound calls per day to source and close candidates through calls, texts, job boards, social media, and referrals
-
Build and manage a high-volume pipeline of candidates, handling multiple offers, competing priorities, and fall-offs simultaneously
-
Close passive candidates, overcome objections, and navigate difficult conversations around pay, relocation, and counteroffers
-
Verify credentials, licensure (Province, state nursing boards, etc.), references, and pre-hire requirements with precision
-
Partner with sales, onboarding, and client teams to ensure seamless placements
-
Champion retention — stay connected with placed clinicians, extend contracts, and reassign top talent to new opportunities
-
Meet and exceed daily, weekly, and monthly metrics set by leadership
What We're Looking For
-
Proven track record of hitting metrics — in recruiting, sales, customer service, or any role where drive produced results
-
Competitive, money-motivated mindset with uncapped earning ambition
-
Thick skin, strong communication skills, and comfort handling high-volume rejection
-

-
Excellent multi-tasking, organizational, and time management skills

Tech-savvy — comfortable working across multiple platforms, CRMs, and digital tools daily
-
Strong sense of urgency, ownership, and accountability

Open to coaching and continuous improvement
Bonus Points For:
