  • Exceptional communication and influence skills; you can manage multiple stakeholders, push back when needed, and build trust at all levels
  • Data-driven approach to recruiting - you track what matters, identify trends, and use metrics to improve outcomes
  • Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple open requisitions simultaneously while providing a white glove candidate experience
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast paced environment
  • You're a self-starter who builds process where it's needed and cuts it where it isn't


Why join us
