The Modern Recruiter

Recruiting is a craft. Most people were never taught it properly. The Modern Recruiter changes that. Eight modules covering every stage of the search — from intake to offer — built on 15 years of real placements across every environment. No theory for theory's sake. No corporate fluff. Just the work, done well.

Real Tools. Real Searches.

Every template is built for a real recruiting situation. Intake conversations, screening, candidate communication, bias awareness, and more. Eleven tools ready for your next search.

Built From 15 Years.

Agency, corporate, government, and startups. This course is built on what held up across all of them—not theory, not best practices. The real work.

Think Like a Headhunter

This course teaches you to think, not just execute. The mindset, the judgment, and the clarity that makes the difference—whatever environment you're in.

About the course

Most recruiters figure this job out on their own. No real training. No playbook. Just instinct, trial, and the occasional mistake you'd rather forget. The Modern Recruiter is built to change that. Eight modules built around real situations. Eleven professional templates you can use on a real search this week. And the perspective that comes from 15 years across agency, corporate, government, and startup environments. No jargon. No certification theatre. Just the tools and thinking that make the difference between a recruiter who reacts and one who leads.

Leah Dorbyk

I've been recruiting for 15 years — across agency desks, corporate teams, government, and startups. I built The Modern Recruiter because I spent too many years watching good recruiters struggle with gaps that nobody bothered to fill. No formal training. No real playbook. Just trial, error, and figuring it out alone. This course is what I wish I'd had on day one. The thinking, the tools, and the perspective that makes the hard situations feel less like emergencies and more like work you know how to do. Recruiting done with Clarity, Heart & Intention — that's what this is built on. Founder, Hael Talent Recruiting with Clarity, Heart & Intention www.haeltalent.com [email protected]
