Tech Recruitment for Non-Technical Recruiters

This course demystifies technical roles so non-technical recruiters can confidently recruit for engineering, product, and IT positions. It introduces common tech stacks in plain language and explains what languages, frameworks, and tools actually mean in a hiring context. You will learn how to run effective intake meetings with hiring managers and ask the right clarifying questions. The course shows how to read technical CVs without getting lost in jargon or overvaluing buzzwords. You will see examples of realistic versus unrealistic role expectations and learn how to push back constructively when necessary. The training explains how to approach sourcing for niche technical skills and how to adapt outreach messages for technical audiences. You will also receive question sets for screening calls that focus on impact and context rather than pretending to be an engineer. By the end, you will feel more comfortable discussing roles like backend developer, DevOps engineer, QA specialist, and data analyst. This confidence translates into better candidate experiences and stronger partnerships with tech teams.
