Administrative Assistant
Location: Pocatello, ID
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM
Pay: $16.00/hour
This Is NOT Your Typical Office Job
If you’re looking for a quiet desk job where every day looks the same, this probably isn’t it.
Gem State Staffing in Pocatello is looking for an Administrative Assistant to join our staffing and recruiting team. This is a fast-paced, people-driven position where you’ll be balancing administrative responsibilities, recruiting, hiring, employee support, customer deadlines, and a whole lot of moving pieces—often all at the same time.
You’ll need to be comfortable making decisions, changing priorities quickly, staying organized under pressure, and taking ownership when something needs to get done.
What You’ll Be Doing
· Support daily staffing and recruiting operations
· Recruit, screen, interview, and assist with hiring candidates
· Help manage employee assignments, attendance, performance, and availability
· Communicate with employees and clients throughout the day
· Assist with onboarding, paperwork, documentation, and employment records
· Help make hiring and staffing decisions based on customer needs
· Monitor job orders and help meet customer deadlines
· Answer phones, respond to emails, and assist walk-in applicants
· Maintain accurate records and keep multiple tasks moving at once
· Troubleshoot staffing issues and help find solutions quickly
· Work closely with the branch team to ensure employees and customers receive great service
What We’re Looking For
The right person is:
· Highly organized and able to manage competing priorities
· Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
· Confident communicating with employees, applicants, and business clients
· Able to make decisions and use good judgment
· Detail-oriented without losing sight of the bigger picture
· Comfortable with recruiting, interviewing, and having difficult conversations
· A strong multitasker who can go from answering a phone call to interviewing a candidate to solving a staffing issue without missing a beat
· Reliable, professional, and willing to jump in wherever needed
· Someone who genuinely enjoys working with people
Why This Position Is Different
Staffing moves quickly. People call out. Customers need employees. Deadlines change. Candidates walk in. New orders come through. Problems need solutions.
You won’t simply be sitting behind a desk completing paperwork. You’ll be part of the team responsible for keeping the branch moving and helping connect the right people with the right jobs.
If you’re someone who likes variety, responsibility, people, problem-solving, and a fast-moving workday, we’d love to meet you.
Monday–Friday | 9:00 AM–6:00 PM | $16.00/hour
