Were looking for a sales-driven Tech Recruiter with a true hunter mentality to join our Search Team in Manila. This is an on-site, in-office position—and make no mistake, this is a sales role disguised as recruiting.
If youre the type who gets energized by the chase, lives for the close, and treats "no" as just the beginning of the conversation, this role is for you. Youll be hunting down elite software engineers, AI/ML specialists, and data professionals who arent actively looking—and convincing them why they should be.
This isnt about posting jobs and waiting. This is about prospecting, pitching, objection handling, and closing deals—except your product is opportunity and your commission comes from landing top technical talent.
What Youll Do
Hunt and close elite tech talent: Software Engineers (Backend, Frontend, Full Stack), AI Engineers, ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Data Analysts, and other in-demand technical professionals.
Sell the opportunity—cold call, prospect, and pitch roles to passive candidates who arent looking but should be listening.
Overcome objections like a pro—counter offers, relocation concerns, timing issues—you know how to navigate and close anyway.
Build your pipeline from scratch using creative prospecting methods: cold outreach, LinkedIn headhunting, GitHub scouting, tech community networking, referrals, and any channel that gets results.
Negotiate and close—manage offers, handle counteroffers, and seal the deal when candidates are on the fence.
Work the numbers—track your metrics, manage your funnel, and consistently hit activity and placement targets like any top sales performer.
Partner with hiring managers to deeply understand what they need, then go out and sell candidates on why this is their next career move.
Compete and win—this is a high-energy, target-driven environment where top performers are recognized and rewarded.
What Were Looking For
Sales background strongly preferred—we want recruiters who think like salespeople, or salespeople ready to transition into tech recruiting.
Hunter DNA—youre relentless, competitive, and motivated by the thrill of the chase and the win.
Cold calling champion—youre not afraid to pick up the phone 50+ times a day and turn strangers into candidates.
Persuasion and influence skills—you know how to build rapport quickly, handle objections, and move people to action.
Resilience and grit—rejection doesnt faze you; it fuels you. You bounce back and keep pushing.
Curiosity about tech—you dont need to code, but you should be genuinely interested in technology and able to have credible conversations with engineers.
Creative prospector—you dont just rely on LinkedIn; you find engineers where they hang out and approach them in ways that break through the noise.
Metrics-driven—you live by your numbers: calls made, conversations had, candidates submitted, offers closed.
Competitive streak—you want to be #1 on the leaderboard and youre willing to outwork everyone to get there.
Must be able to work on-site at our Manila office full-time—collaboration, energy, and team competition happen in person.
What We Offer
Aggressive commission structure—your earnings potential is directly tied to your closings. Top hunters make top money.
Performance-based bonuses and incentives—we reward results, not just activity.
Clear career path—prove yourself as a hunter and grow into senior search, team lead, or business development roles.
High-energy, competitive team culture—daily wins celebrated, leaderboards tracked, and top performers recognized.
The thrill of the hunt—every day is a new opportunity to prospect, pitch, and close game-changing talent.
On-site environment built for winners—surround yourself with driven teammates who push you to be better.
If youre a killer salesperson looking for your next challenge, or a recruiter whos always been told you "act more like a salesperson"—this is your role.
