Recruiter Cover Letter Example

I close more than 120 engineering and product requisitions a year at Harborview Technologies, holding a rolling load of 25 reqs at a 93% offer acceptance rate and a 33-day average time-to-fill. I'm applying for the Recruiter role at [Company name] because I want to keep working at a volume and speed where sourcing quality can't slip.

I cut our agency dependency on technical hires from 45% to 13% by building a passive-sourcing engine in SeekOut and LinkedIn Recruiter, saving roughly $610,000 a year in fees, and I doubled underrepresented representation in our engineering pipeline from 19% to 41% through targeted outreach and community partnerships. Redesigning our interview loops with 14 hiring managers also cut interview-to-offer time 40% and raised candidate-experience scores from 3.4 to 4.5.

I administer Greenhouse for a 900-person company, owning scorecard templates, stage automation and quarterly funnel reporting to our VP of Talent, and earlier in my career I grew referral hires from 9% to 26% of total volume and converted 71% of our campus interns into full-time offers across three cycles. I hold an AIRS CIR, an AIRS CDR and a SHRM-CP.

I'd welcome a conversation about the hiring priorities at [Company name] and where my sourcing and pipeline-diversity work could help. I'm glad to meet at whatever time suits your team. Thank you for your consideration.
