About this task

This payroll and HR services provider for healthcare staffing (501–1,000 employees) is looking for a senior Phone Screener for an ongoing part-time engagement of 2–4 h a week. Timely, human updates and rejection messages.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It works in staffing and HR technology, and the team is used to external specialists.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United States works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (PT).

What you deliver

  • Send updates to 40 candidates a week within two working days of each stage.
  • A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends
  • A written update every Wednesday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked
  • Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day

What a week looks like

  • Thursday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items
  • Tuesday: main working block (2 hours)
  • Wednesday: hand-off note with what shipped and what is open

Duration: 16 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.
