The Role:

We are looking for a Lead Recruiter to join our team.

  • Evaluate, organize, and manage candidates within applicant tracking system to determine whether qualifications meet position requirements
  • Creatively source and attract passive talent to maintain quality candidate pipelines when needed
  • Collaborate with PeopleOps team members to create, implement, and lead initiatives that uplift and improve Product School's recruitment efforts

  • You have helped your team with recruiting initiatives (like documenting best practices, improving candidate experience, or other process improvements) and can speak to the impact of that work
  • You're savvy with your recruiting stack–you know LinkedIn Recruiter like the back of your hand but then have experience working with other tools like Gem, Sourcewhale, HumanPredictions, etc.
  • You are AI driven, you using AI in your workflows to expand your reach and be more efficient as a recruiter.
