Job description

Recruiting Operations Specialist (contract to hire)

This role is the operational backbone of a fast hiring team, owning interview scheduling, candidate logistics, and keeping the applicant tracking system clean. A strong candidate is highly organized, quick to spot and fix process snags, and comfortable handling urgent requests from leadership. Prior experience in a fast moving startup or high volume agency helps, and a bachelor's degree is expected.

How it fits the AI era

AI can handle routine scheduling and data entry, so the human work shifts to judgment calls, last minute reshuffles, and making candidates feel personally looked after. The role still depends on anticipating problems and improving systems, which AI can suggest but not own. Speed and precision remain human strengths here.

How it builds AI experience

Working at an AI powered car ownership and insurance platform gives exposure to how AI tools support recruiting operations, like automating outreach or organizing candidate data. Building experience means learning the applicant tracking system deeply and finding where automation removes friction. That practical know how carries into future recruiting or sourcing roles.

Worth showing

• Interview scheduling at scale
• Process improvement examples
