Guess part answer lies in the question itself, a good understanding of technology is key, recruiting is also very intuitive, sometime you just know who the right individual is.

Couple key ingredients to be a effective recruiter:

1) How well you know your organisation

2) Business you are in,

3) Client knowledge

4) Competitors

5) Availability of resources

6) Sources to locate resources

7) Your effectiveness in communicating with prospective candidates.

8) Perseverance, follow ups

9) Ability to differentiate between a fake and a good profile

10) Passion , enthusiasm, love for your job.

If you are recruiting US candidates, please ensure that you are asking the right questions, check EEOC information on what questions to avoid.

You can seek your own growth path, remember that you can master a subject and can reach a point where you become a subject matter expert. recruiting is a very challenging profession and it can at times be frustrating, however you can make it creative. You can move up the ladder to become a Head of recruiting, Talent head or diversify into other ares of HR.

Quick thoughts:
If you are trying to find out if the project is fake or real you can do reference check to validate the information
1) Ask him/her to give the name of the project leader/manager as a reference. Call the person up to validate.
2) You can on your own call the Client/company he/she worked to validate dates of employment.
3) You can probe on the project from a layman's perspective to find out the objective, team size, applicability, budget, their contribution, deadline, go live schedules. If its a fake, most likely they will falter at some point.

If you are measuring effectiveness of the current processes, you could look at each of the current recrtuitment processes and check their effectiveness, for eg , vendor success, if you are using staffing firms, which are the one's that give you qualified and filtered resources, on time and at a price you want.
You could use market best practices,or do a benchmark with the best in the market.
I am not sure if this answers your question, do a chopper view approach ( zoom out from your seat, and take a look at the recruitment division, the people, their roles, the current processess and then look at your objective, it should be able to help you find your course.
Best Wishes

Hi Bhonsley, there is definitely difference when approaching Indian candidates and US candidates for opportunities. Recruiting is something that you will learn as you work on requirements. A Technical Recruiter can grow to be a Business Head of a Recruitment Company. Cheers, Fred
