A note from the founder
Sourcing is the foundation of every recruiting motion that scales.
Most firms blur the line between sourcer and recruiter. The Wilkinson Firm separates them deliberately. Sourcers find. Recruiters close. Both get paid for what they actually do.
We are opening Talent Sourcer seats - contributors who deliver qualified candidates into the TWF pipeline at a per-candidate rate. Mission-aligned starter pay, real climb as you prove your sourcing quality.
What you would do
- Source candidates against TWF requisitions across HR Advisory, PHES, and GovCon practices
- Vet each candidate against the requisition's must-haves
- Deliver candidate packages: resume, sourcing notes, contact info, confirmed interest
- Maintain a sourcing log inside TWF's Manatal ATS
- Iterate on what is working - feedback from recruiters shapes your funnel
Compensation - Climbing Ladder
Stage 1 (first 90 days, mission-aligned starter):
- $15 per qualified candidate delivered (must meet must-haves + confirmed interest)
- Bonus: $25 per candidate that advances to first-round interview
Stage 2 (after 50 qualified deliveries + 30% interview advancement rate):
- $25 per qualified candidate
- $50 per candidate that advances to interview
- $250 per candidate that gets hired
Stage 3 (after 6 months + sustained quality):
- $50 per qualified candidate
- $100 per candidate that advances to interview
- 1% of first-year salary per candidate hired
- Senior sourcer / team lead conversation opens
Who we want
- 1-5 years dedicated sourcing experience
- Comfortable in LinkedIn Recruiter, hireEZ, SeekOut, or equivalent boolean-search tools
- Strong Manatal or ATS hygiene
- Documented sourcing quality - candidates you delivered who actually got hired
Bonus: Specialty in BH clinical, hospitality, or federal workforce.
Who we are not for
- Sourcers whose "qualified" means "they have a resume"
- Anyone who has never had a candidate hired from their pipeline
- Generalists who cannot speak to interview advancement rates
