Founding Technical Recruiter

Description

As a software infrastructure company, 100% of our value comes from solving hard problems better, faster, and more efficiently than anyone else in the world. Our ability to do this is 100% dependent on the strength of the team.

As the first recruiter at Recall.ai you will work closely with the founders to build the core team. It's no exaggeration to say that this is our highest leverage role. Your work at Recall.ai will dramatically change the trajectory of the company.

You'll work on roles across the entire company. A upcoming few roles we're looking to fill:

• Software Engineer
• Chief of Staff
• Founding Marketer
• Account Executive
• Developer Success

Responsibilities

1. Fill open roles while continuously raising the bar. Every hire should raise the average level of the team.

• Building and maintaining relationships with strong prospective candidates
• Doing phone screens with candidates, and delivering the initial pitch as to why they should join Recall.ai
• Keeping track of all candidates in the process, and ensuring that they receive quick responses and quick decisions.
• Continuously debugging and optimizing our interview flows across all roles

  • You should be able to deeply understand a company's mission, and communicate that in a compelling way to candidates.
• Deep curiosity about what motivates candidates and about what differentiates a great performer from a truly excellent performer in a role.

  • Posted on Hacker News
  • Attended in-person events, meetups, and hackathons
  • Hosted events, meetups and hackathons
