What does the day look like?
A standard working week takes 37.5 to 40 hours from Monday to Friday. Between 30% and 35% of your day is spent on interview scheduling and calendar logistics, coordinating interview slots between candidates and hiring managers using Google Workspace or Calendly. Another 25% to 30% goes to resume screening and database triage, checking incoming applications against job requirements inside Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) like Greenhouse, Lever, or Workday. You also spend 15% to 20% of your time drafting candidate communications and rejection letters, and 10% to 15% sourcing talent on LinkedIn Recruiter.
The imagined glamour of interviewing top talent and making direct hiring decisions is at most 15% of the role. The remaining 85% consists of administrative scheduling, database maintenance, repetitive status updates, and updating spreadsheets. Shift work and nights are rare, occurring mainly when supporting North American or Western European hiring teams remotely across time zones.
