What We Seek:
We are seeking an experienced Recruiter who will work with our leadership team
and hiring managers to identify proven entrepreneurial talent to join our
ecosystem. Successful candidates will understand the importance of creating a
positive candidate experience and be results-oriented while keeping the bar
high. You will wear multiple hats including business development (sourcing and
networking), quality control when screening candidates entering the recruiting
pipeline, facilitating the interview process, and close offers with reasonable
costs and on a quick timeline.
What You Will be Doing:
- You will work with hiring managers to identify recruiting needs. You need to sync with the company’s leadership team and hiring managers regularly to identify hiring needs and prioritize positions based on the portfolio company's goals. You will need to master the recruiting process and advise hiring managers on job market trends and compensation structure. For each portfolio company you support, you must understand their vision and their product inside and out in order to present the data in such a manner that attracts the best talents.
- You will need to ensure positive candidate experience throughout the entire interview process. This includes things such as timely follow-up, interview scheduling, maintaining open and transparent dialogue with candidates as well as the entire hiring committee and your manager.
- Source high quality talent for all positions. We typically are requested to find the initial founding team of a brand new startup which means quality and ability to match up skill sets and personalities to optimize team structure is critical. You will be responsible for identifying, reaching out to, and engaging talents for all functions as well as negotiate a compensation package that focuses on long term gain.
- You will recommend and execute the best recruiting strategy. You need to know what the most effective channels are to hire for different positions. We expect the recruiter to know where the best talents congregate and find every opportunity to network with talents to get referrals and gain their trust.
- You will be able to learn and use different HR and recruiting systems to assist with managing the hiring process and recruiting funnel. You will be responsible to use our ATS system and other scheduling and recruiting related systems including Greenhouse, Lever, HackerRank, Linkedin and other systems. You need to assist with our recruiting committee to list any type of job posting (career page job post, Linkedin paid job post, other social media job post) in order to advertise and promote the job. You will utilize different tools and resources to promote the job, and manage the candidates from different channels and migrate any new candidate data into Lever for tracking.
- You will be responsible to negotiate offers that focus on long-term incentives within a reasonable timeline. You need to build strong relationships with promising candidates by knowing what truly motivates the candidates. In most cases, candidates who join our ecosystem focus on the opportunities instead of short term financial return. You need to identify candidates’ concerns, present opportunities and involve hiring managers/executives to the closing process in the right timing to close the offer.
What you must bring:
- At least 3 years of hands-on senior level recruiting experience running the process from beginning to end as an in-house recruiter.- Experience working in hi-tech startups or companies is strongly preferred.
- Healthy network of high quality candidates and/or demonstrate the ability to create a network of them.
- Excellent interpersonal ability; strong verbal and written communications in English and interpersonal relationship skills.
- Operational excellence. We expect you to be able to manage an efficient recruiting process - from sourcing, scheduling, screening to negotiating and closing offers - for multiple candidates simultaneously and constantly identify ways to improve the candidate experience.
- Attention to detail and multi-tasking. You’ll be juggling a lot of important projects at once. It will be important both to drive them forward quickly and to pay attention to the details so balls don’t get dropped.
- Bachelor degree from a top university. Technical degree or marketing degree is a strong plus.
- Familiarity with applicant tracking systems, including Lever, is a strong plus.
