Whether a candidate is firm, contingent, or on-contract looking for a new role, Ms. Benbow matches them to open positions by closely examining their skillset, as presented in their resume, and pairing them to qualifying positions. Positions that closely match their skill set, Ms. Benbow will send via email to the candidate for their review. When a candidate is interested in a position, Ms. Benbow works with the candidate to get them submitted by writing a skills matrix (a document with mandatory skills optional skills asking explicit details of a candidate’s skillset), or other required documents (e.g. summary of qualifications, highlights of candidate skillset, etc.) required to submit them to the position. She also keeps the candidate updated of the status as their submission as it moves through the review process.

She follows up with the recruiting team in order to ensure that sponsorship candidates are engaged throughout the process.
