ROLE SUMMARY

We are seeking a Talent Sourcing Specialist for American Campus Communities (ACC), a Blackstone Real Estate portfolio company and the largest owner, manager and developer of high-quality student housing communities in the United States. This role is based in Bengaluru, India and is hired through Revantage India.

The Talent Sourcing Specialist supports ACC’s Talent Acquisition function by proactively identifying and engaging prospective candidates, building talent pipelines and executing key recruiting operations activities across property and corporate hiring. Working closely with US-based Talent Acquisition leadership, recruiters, Human Resources and hiring managers, the role helps ensure qualified candidates are identified efficiently and recruiting processes move forward accurately and on time.

The Talent Sourcing Specialist is responsible for the day-to-day execution of assigned sourcing strategies and recruiting administration, including candidate research and outreach, requisition and posting administration, candidate and offer-status tracking, onboarding assignments and applicant-tracking-system maintenance. The role serves as an extension of the US-based Talent Acquisition team, completing defined recruiting activities through the offshore-to-onshore handoff while escalating candidate assessments, hiring decisions and other matters requiring recruiter or hiring-manager judgment.

Primary Role

• Execute sourcing strategies for assigned property and corporate positions, identifying prospective candidates through professional networks, resume databases, job boards, employee referrals and targeted outreach.
• Build and maintain candidate pipelines for recurring, anticipated and difficult-to-fill roles, and review resumes and professional profiles against established position requirements for US-based Talent Acquisition review.
• Engage prospective candidates through professional and personalized outreach, communicate ACC employment opportunities and maintain appropriate follow-up to support candidate interest.
• Manage sourcing activity through the offshore-to-onshore handoff, ensuring candidate profiles, outreach history, status and relevant information are complete and ready for recruiter review.
• Track sourcing activity and key performance indicators, including pipeline coverage, candidate response and conversion rates, sourcing-channel effectiveness and execution timeliness.
• Create and maintain jobs in the applicant tracking system based on approved requisitions, administer requested recruitment advertising and ensure recruiting records remain complete and accurate throughout the hiring lifecycle.
• Monitor offer activity and recruiting milestones, follow up on pending approvals, signatures, acceptance steps and other outstanding actions, and clearly identify required next steps and responsible parties.
• Assign established onboarding activities for new hires and monitor completion of outstanding requirements in coordination with Talent Acquisition, Human Resources and other stakeholders.
• Administer Pinpoint access in accordance with established procedures, including approved access changes and periodic access reviews.
• Respond to routine candidate questions and provide timely recruiting-process updates, maintaining a professional and responsive candidate experience.
• Support recruiting reporting, pipeline analysis and data-quality reviews, proactively identifying missing information, process delays and other matters requiring follow-up or escalation.
• Identify opportunities to improve sourcing methods, recruiting workflows and candidate communications, including opportunities to standardize work and leverage recruiting technology, AI and automation.
• Maintain organized recruiting documentation and handle candidate, compensation and other employment-related information with appropriate confidentiality and discretion.
• Work closely with US-based Talent Acquisition partners to maintain clear priorities and effective handoffs across time zones, enabling sourcing and recruiting administration to progress efficiently across the recruiting cycle.
• Work from the Bengaluru office under the hybrid working model, with working hours aligned to provide meaningful daily overlap with US business hours; flexibility is expected during elevated hiring activity and other peak recruiting cycles.
• Perform other recruiting, sourcing and Talent Acquisition projects and responsibilities as assigned.
