Inspira Education Group is a fast-growing edtech startup backed by leading VCs including Zeev Ventures, Quiet Capital, Craft Ventures, and Jeff Fluhr (Founder of StubHub). The company operates the world's leading network of top admissions coaches in medical, legal, business, and college studies, combining software and services to democratize access to high-quality coaching and disrupt traditional application processes. This Talent Sourcer role treats sourcing as a strategic, high-performing function rather than a support operation. You will own end-to-end sourcing for hard-to-fill, niche, and senior roles—partnering closely with hiring managers to design targeted search strategies and building repeatable playbooks that scale the function. Key responsibilities include: - Design and execute advanced Boolean and X-ray searches across LinkedIn Recruiter and other platforms to fill challenging roles - Build sharp Ideal Candidate Profiles with hiring managers that go beyond standard job descriptions - Own sourcing pipelines across multiple concurrent roles while maintaining quality - Run high-volume, personalized outreach campaigns and refine messaging based on response data - Screen candidates before handoff to hiring teams - Document playbooks and standard operating procedures - Track and analyze sourcing metrics (response rates, conversion, time-to-fill) and act on insights - Identify when search strategies aren't working and rebuild them rather than simply increasing volume The role requires 5 days per week in-office attendance at the NYC office (Nomad location). Requirements: - 3–5 years of recruiting and sourcing experience with deep 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 (not limited to one specialty) - Excellent written communication skills—ability to craft outreach that generates responses from passive candidates - Systems thinking mindset: you document processes as you go and build toward repeatable, scalable systems - Comfort owning multiple concurrent searches with real autonomy and accountability
