You'll develop valuable sales, recruiting, negotiation, and business development skills that will set you up for long‑term success.

This position is HYBRID and based in Dallas, TX, near the American Airlines Center(2323 Victory Ave, Dallas, TX 75219). During your first 1–2 months, you'll work in the office 4–5 days per week. After that, the expectation is 3 days per week onsite, with additional flexibility as you become established in the role.

You do NOT need previous recruiting or technology experience to be successful here. We are open to recent graduates, entry‑level candidates, and experienced recruiting professionals.
