Client: TriNetWilsonHCG innovated the idea of adding Talent Administrators and Coordinators (TACs) to each team of recruiters it contacts out to clients. This dual-team model allows recruiters to devote the lion's share of their daily attention to sourcing and client-facing communication, with the TAC team covering scheduling, processing, background checks, and the implementation of the particular HR/Legal requirements that each client has for its onboarding process. I work with a team of nine other TACs and upwards of 45 recruiters in the Sales division of Wilson's TriNet HR Services account.
