Job description

Aprés Nail has innovated the nail market as the creator of Gel-X. Our mission is to improve nail industry standards and the lives of nail artists by providing innovative products that help both them and their services thrive. Our nails are seen everywhere, from the Met Gala to the Oscars to your local nail salon. The Gel-X revolution is real, and we're looking for our next great team member!

We're looking for a part-time , full-cycle Recruiter to own hiring for our creative and corporate teams, with warehouse recruiting support as needed. This person will manage the entire candidate journey — from sourcing through offer — while also strengthening our employer brand and building long-term talent pipelines in the community. When not actively recruiting, they'll partner closely with our HR Generalist to make sure the transition from "candidate" to "new hire" is seamless.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with hiring managers to build clear, compelling job descriptions
• Create hiring scorecards and a "hiring Venn diagram" for each role, educating hiring managers on the must-haves, nice-to-haves, and culture fit to look for in candidates
• Source and build pipelines of qualified candidates across creative, corporate, and warehouse roles
• Own scheduling and coordination for all interviews — resume screen through hiring manager rounds
• Conduct first-round phone/video screening interviews to assess qualifications, experience, and fit before advancing candidates to the hiring manager
• Coordinate reference checks and support offer preparation and negotiation within approved pay bands
• Track candidates and pipeline status in the ATS (or a shared tracking system), keeping hiring managers updated in real time

Onboarding Handoff

• Serve as the bridge between recruiting and HR: once an offer is accepted, compile a clean handoff packet (start date, role details, hiring manager notes, any special accommodations) for the HR Generalist
• Confirm all handoff information is accurate and complete so the Generalist can build the new hire's first-day itinerary without needing to chase down details
• Follow up with the Generalist to confirm the handoff was received and nothing fell through the cracks

Employer Branding

• Keep job postings and the careers page current and on-brand
• Support light content creation for social/LinkedIn — employee spotlights, culture moments, hiring announcements — in partnership with the marketing team
• Monitor and respond to employer review sites (Glassdoor, Indeed) to protect and strengthen our reputation as an employer

Community & Talent Pipelining

• Build relationships with local cosmetology schools, fashion/design programs, and community colleges to create a steady pipeline of creative talent
• Attend or represent the company at local job fairs and community hiring events, particularly useful for warehouse and seasonal hiring surges
• Maintain a "silver medalist" list of strong past candidates to re-engage for future openings
• Manage relationships with any staffing/temp agencies used for warehouse surge support

Reporting & Process

• Track basic recruiting metrics (time-to-fill, source of hire, pipeline conversion) to share with hiring managers and leadership
• Support seasonal hiring planning, especially ahead of Q4 peak season for warehouse and retail-adjacent roles
• Provide light market/salary benchmarking input for new or evolving roles

Qualifications and Requirements

• 2+ years of experience as a full-cycle recruiter across both creative and corporate functions
• Prior recruiting experience within beauty, cosmetics, or fashion brands strongly preferred
• Warehouse/light-industrial recruiting experience is a plus — you'll flex into this as needed
• Comfortable working independently in a part-time capacity while managing multiple open roles
• Ability to work Tuesday to Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM on-site
