Recruitment Consultant for Academic Work Genève! #

About the role ###

Don't leave fit to chance!

At Academic Work, we are the experts in the early-career professional market, with a clear ambition: to connect talent with the companies that will make them successful.

For more than 15 years, we have deployed our expertise throughout Switzerland, making us a partner of choice for our clients. Today, our Geneva office needs temporary support and that is why we are looking for a Recruitment Consultant to join our team for a period of 4 months, potentially extendable.

Our office is a unique blend of dynamism, competition, ambition, and good humor, where every member plays an essential role. What distinguishes us? A strong corporate culture, an uncompromising results orientation, fearsome well-oiled processes, and a sincere commitment to our candidates and clients.

Ready to take on the challenge?

Tasks ##

As a Recruitment Consultant, you will be the conductor of your processes, from gathering client needs to supporting your candidates on assignment. Concretely, your daily routine will revolve around these tasks:

• Strategy & client consulting: exchanging directly with our clients (in a pair with the Account Manager) to understand their needs. Far from being a simple executor, you assume an expert role to challenge them and guide them towards the best acquisition strategy.
• Copywriting & attraction: writing immersive, transparent, and targeted advertisements. No more purely corporate jargon: you speak the language of our candidates to stand out and attract the best talent.
• Assessment & selection: conducting interviews and evaluating candidates with the rigor of our standards, relying on our scientific recruitment methods. You will become an expert in analyzing our psychometric and cognitive tests to identify true potential beyond the simple CV.
• Closing & negotiation: developing complete files and defending your profiles to clients with conviction. You will use the scientific data from your assessments as a lever to convince your clients to bet on potential, while conducting negotiations (salary, conditions) with a master hand.
• Onboarding & partnership: Guaranteeing irreproachable administrative follow-up (contracts, permits, certificates, etc.). In the field, you become the career partner of your consultants, with the necessary firmness and kindness to maintain lasting relationships.

Your profile ###

• Experience: 0 to 3 years of professional experience, ideally in contact with clients (internships and student jobs).
• Languages: Perfect mastery of French (native language) as well as a very good level of English (minimum C1).
• Digital native at heart, you are autonomous and juggle IT tools with curiosity.

Your DNA (what will make your success with us):

• You have a fearsome attention to detail. Where others drown under administrative work, you rely on clear processes to remain hyper-efficient.
• Driven by results, you know how to stay on course and keep your cool even when pressure rises, deadlines are short, or plans change at the last minute.
• You do not settle for just saying "yes". You have the poise necessary to defend your convictions in the face of a demanding client.
