From researching potential candidates and reviewing resumes to managing job postings, organizing information, and supporting active searches, you’ll become an important part of keeping our recruiting teams moving.

No previous recruiting experience is required. We’re looking for someone with the right attitude, strong attention to detail, and a willingness to learn.

• LinkedIn Recruiter and other professional sourcing tools
• Recruiting databases and applicant tracking systems
• Professional communication and candidate outreach
• Market and company research
• How staffing and recruiting firms work with clients and candidates

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Comfortable using technology and learning new systems.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Curious and resourceful. You enjoy figuring things out and finding information.
