Inspira Education Group is a fast-growing edtech startup democratizing access to high-quality coaching for students pursuing medical, legal, business, and college admissions. The company operates as a network of top admissions coaches and is building software and services to disrupt traditional application processes. Backed by leading VCs including Zeev Ventures, Quiet Capital, and Craft Ventures. The Talent Sourcer role is a core function within the recruiting team, operating as a high-performing sourcing engine rather than a support function. You will own end-to-end sourcing for hard-to-fill, niche, and senior roles across multiple functions simultaneously. Key responsibilities: - Design and execute advanced Boolean searches and X-ray queries across LinkedIn Recruiter and other platforms to identify passive candidates for difficult roles - Partner with hiring managers to build detailed Ideal Candidate Profiles that go beyond job descriptions - Manage sourcing pipelines across multiple concurrent roles while maintaining quality standards - Conduct high-volume, personalized outreach campaigns and refine messaging based on response metrics - Screen candidates before handoff to hiring teams - Document sourcing playbooks and standard operating procedures to enable team scaling - Track and analyze sourcing metrics including response rates, conversion rates, and time-to-fill - Identify when search strategies are underperforming and rebuild approaches rather than simply increasing volume This is a 5-day-per-week in-office role based in Gramercy, NYC. Requirements: - 3–5 years of recruiting and sourcing experience with demonstrated expertise in Boolean search and LinkedIn Recruiter - Proven track record filling hard or senior roles through proactive sourcing (not just managing inbound applications) - Sourcing experience across multiple functions and disciplines, not limited to a single specialty - Excellent written communication skills, particularly ability to craft outreach that generates responses from passive candidates - Systems-oriented mindset with ability to document processes and build repeatable, scalable workflows - Comfort managing multiple concurrent searches with significant autonomy
