Requirements

  • 4+ years of recruiting experience in a fast-paced or high-growth environment
  • Prior experience as an early recruiting hire and in scaling recruiting organizations a strong plus
  • Strong technical recruiting background, with the ability to flex into GTM and operations hiring
  • Proven ability to source and attract passive candidates at top-tier tech companies or startups
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a focus on relationship-building
  • Experience with modern recruiting tools (eg. Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, etc)
