Talent Acquisition & Retention Executive

1. Role Description

Adaan Digital is rebuilding digital execution to operate AI-first, outcome-focused, and performance-measured.

We are hiring MBA (HR) graduates who want to build careers in high-performance talent acquisition and retention strategy — not traditional administrative HR.

This role is for individuals who want to:

• Build real hiring pipelines
• Use AI daily for sourcing and screening
• Understand performance-based hiring
• Drive measurable retention outcomes
• Operate with speed, ownership, and data discipline

Recruitment at Adaan is a business function.

It directly impacts delivery quality, client outcomes, and growth velocity.

2. Key Responsibilities

A. AI-First Talent Acquisition

• Manage end-to-end hiring for digital execution roles
• Build active sourcing pipelines through LinkedIn and professional networks
• Use AI tools for:
• JD optimization
• Boolean search refinement
• Resume summarization
• Candidate scoring frameworks
• Structured interview question generation
• Maintain disciplined ATS tracking
• Ensure high hiring manager feedback velocity
• Improve time-to-hire without compromising quality

B. Structured Retention & Engagement

• Conduct structured stay conversations
• Track early performance signals of new hires
• Identify retention risk indicators
• Conduct structured exit interviews
• Generate monthly retention insight reports
• Support culture alignment during onboarding

Retention at Adaan is data-driven — not reactive.

3. Skills Required

• Strong communication and persuasion skills
• Structured thinking and screening ability
• High follow-up discipline
• Comfort with metrics and reporting
• Active LinkedIn usage
• Curiosity about digital roles (SEO, performance marketing, tech, ops)
• High ownership mindset

4. Qualifications Required

• MBA in HR (final year or recent graduate)
• Strong academic track record
• Internship or exposure to recruitment preferred
• Digital-native mindset
• Comfort with fast-paced environments

This role is ideal for MBA HR graduates who want to become strategic talent operators — not coordinators.

5. AI Competencies (Mandatory)

At Adaan, AI is the operating system — including for HR.

You must:

• Use AI daily for sourcing, screening, and communication
• Improve output per hour using structured prompts
• Build candidate evaluation scorecards using AI
• Track measurable productivity improvements
• Experiment with AI recruiting tools

Manual-only recruiters will not scale here.

6. Performance Metrics & Expectations

Recruitment performance is measured objectively.

Core Metrics:

• 97%+ First-Time-Right (FTR)
• (Quality of shortlisted and hired profiles)
• 97%+ On-Time-Every-Time (OTET)
• (Interview scheduling, feedback loops, offer rollouts)
• Role-wise time-to-hire benchmarks
• Pipeline strength metrics
• Early retention indicators (first 90–120 days)

Review Cadence:

• Structured monthly reviews
• Clear KPIs from Day 1
• Transparent performance dashboards
• Early performance signals matter
• Sustained underperformance is addressed quickly

Global Accountability Standard

Adaan operates in global markets.

If hiring commitments require coordination across time zones, responsiveness is expected.

We measure outcomes — not activity.

7. Compensation Philosophy

• Fixed Pay + Performance-Linked Variable Pay
• Variable linked to:
• Hiring quality (FTR)
• Timeliness (OTET)
• Time-to-hire efficiency
• Retention stability of hires
• AI-driven productivity improvements

High performers earn disproportionately more.

Average performance earns average pay.

Impact is rewarded — not effort alone.

8. Growth Path (AI-Aligned Evolution)

This role can evolve into:

• Talent Acquisition Lead
• Employer Branding & Talent Marketing Specialist
• AI Hiring Systems Architect
• Workforce Strategy & Analytics Manager

Those who build scalable AI-enabled hiring systems will grow fastest.

9. AI-First Performance Culture (Distilled)

At Adaan:

• Ownership > supervision
• Outcomes > activity
• Speed + Accuracy > excuses
• Data > assumptions
• AI leverage > manual repetition

We hire disciplined, curious, high-agency professionals who measure their performance transparently.

10. Why Join Adaan

• Build next-generation AI-driven hiring systems
• Get structured monthly feedback and accelerated learning
• Operate inside a performance-measured ecosystem
• Gain exposure to global digital markets
• Earn responsibility early
