Job description

We're looking for a Recruiting Coordinator - someone who genuinely enjoys working with people and has a sharp eye for detail to support our recruiting team. This isn't a "check-the-box" recruiting role. You'll play a key part in identifying strong candidates, guiding them through the early stages of the hiring process, and ensuring every interaction reflects a thoughtful and professional candidate experience.

You’ll partner closely with the Recruiting Solutions Lead and step in where needed—especially during peak hiring seasons—to keep our process running smoothly and effectively.

A Day in the Life

No two days are exactly the same, but here's what you can expect:

• Start your day reviewing new applicants—looking beyond resumes to spot potential, not just perfection
• Conduct phone screens, getting to know candidates and assessing both qualifications and overall fit
• Actively listen during conversations to understand the candidate experiences, motivations, and concerns
• Coordinate interviews
• Send out screening questionnaires and follow up with candidates to keep things moving
• Communicate updates clearly and professionally, ensuring candidates feel informed and respected
• Flag anything that seems off—gaps, inconsistencies, or concerns—for further review
• Jump in to assist with interviews during busy hiring periods
• Partner with the Recruiting Solutions Lead on priorities, problem-solving, and process improvements

Some days will be fast-paced and high-volume, while others require deeper focus and thoughtful evaluation.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Reviewing resumes and applications with strong attention to detail
• Conducting phone screenings and evaluating candidate fit
• Using strong active listening and interpersonal skills to create a positive experience- regardless of the next steps
• Sending and managing candidate screening communicationsMaintaining organized and accurate candidate records
• Supporting interview processes and participating when needed
• Assisting with recruiting needs as they arise

What We're Looking For

This role is a great fit for someone who:

• Notices the small details others miss
• Thinks beyond black-and-white criteria and considers the bigger picture
• Naturally puts themselves in the candidate's shoes
• Is an engaged, thoughtful listener who builds rapport easily
• Communicates clearly, professionally, and with intention
• Is comfortable asking questions and speaking up when something doesn't feel right
• Takes ownership of their work and follows through

What Success Looks Like

• Strong candidates moving forward—not just more candidates
• A positive, professional experience for every candidate
• Candidates feeling respected and informed, even when the outcome isn't a match
• Thoughtful decision-making, not rushed or surface-level screening
• Reliable, proactive support to the recruiting team

Why This Role Matters

You’ll be one of the first impressions candidates have of our company. The way you evaluate, communicate, and engage will directly impact the quality of our hires and the strength of our team.
