Job description

Recruiting Operations Associate (contract to hire)

This role keeps a fast recruiting team running: scheduling interviews, moving candidates through an applicant tracking system, handling take home assignments, and responding to urgent requests from leadership. A strong candidate stays organized under shifting priorities, catches small errors, and looks for ways to automate and simplify messy steps. Prior work in a fast growing startup or a busy agency helps, and a bachelor's degree is listed.

How it fits the AI era

Much of the scheduling, outreach, and record keeping can be sped up with automation and AI tools, and the posting itself asks for someone who spots ways to streamline. What stays human is judgment: reading which candidate matters most right now, keeping communication clear and polished, and staying calm when leadership needs something fast. The role rewards people who use tools to remove friction while keeping the process careful and personal.

How it builds AI experience

At a company that builds an AI advisor for car ownership and insurance, this role offers hands on practice applying automation to recruiting operations, such as outreach, scheduling, and tracking in an applicant tracking system. Experience with recruiting software and a habit of testing small workflow improvements would help build that. The posting does not require prior AI experience, so the learning comes on the job.
