WHY ADD THIS ROLE
More capacity. Clearer ownership.
Outsourcing is most useful when the responsibilities are explicit and the handoffs fit your team's real workflow.
- Keep candidate, employee, and credential records organized across recurring workflows.
- Make pending documents, interview steps, and follow-ups visible to the people owner.
- Add coordination capacity while hiring and employee decisions remain with your team.
