candidates, screen them, and present them for
potential employment. While a recruitment
consultant may serve all industries, a technical
recruiter is a specialist, holding particular
knowledge of the technology industries, who is
therefore uniquely able to assist hiring

technical education and experience, be it self-taught or
through a technical university. They must keep current
