Recruiter

Home Instead provides in-home care services that help older adults remain safe, independent, and at home. The Recruiter will manage end-to-end caregiver and CNA hiring for the Fort Collins office, including sourcing, screening, interviewing, selection, compliance, onboarding, and retention support while tracking recruiting metrics.

What you'll do:

• Own the pipeline. Post, refresh, and optimize openings across Indeed, ZipRecruiter, the Home Instead careers site, and local job boards. Track source performance and shift spend toward what actually produces hires
• Source actively. Don't wait on applicants. Build relationships with CNA and nursing programs, workforce centers, community colleges, faith communities, and local employers. Run and attend hiring events and job fairs
• Move fast on every lead. Contact new applicants within hours, not days. Screen by phone, schedule interviews, and keep candidates warm through a process where speed is the single biggest differentiator
• Interview and select. Conduct in-person and virtual interviews using behavior-based questions. Assess for compassion, reliability, and judgment — the traits that predict a caregiver who stays
• Run compliance cleanly. Manage background checks, CAPS/CBI screening, reference checks, TB tests, driving records, and I-9 verification. Maintain complete, audit-ready personnel files that stand up to CDPHE review
• Onboard and orient. Coordinate new-hire paperwork, orientation, and required training so new CAREGivers reach their first shift quickly and confidently
• Support retention. Partner with the office team on stay interviews, recognition programs, referral bonuses, and engagement events. Track turnover reasons and bring the patterns to leadership
• Report the numbers. Maintain accurate applicant tracking data and report weekly on funnel metrics, cost per hire, and retention

• 1+ years of recruiting, staffing, HR, or high-volume customer-facing experience

• Strong organization and follow-through; comfortable managing 50+ active candidates at once
• Proficiency with applicant tracking systems, job boards, and Microsoft Office
• Valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and current auto insurance
• Ability to pass a background check and pre-employment screening
• Eligible to work in the United States
