A hiring manager hires for an open position on their team and leads the hiring process. They do this in addition to their regular job responsibilities and have the final say on who gets hired. A recruiter's role is to identify, attract and help a company hire great team members. They are either outsourced by the company or they work in-house to fill open positions. Hiring managers and recruiters have the same goals and objectives but they take on different tasks and play complementary roles in the hiring process.﻿
