• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence Hiring Managers and challenge assumptions when required.
• Experience managing multiple priorities while maintaining a high bar for candidate quality and experience.
• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to use recruiting data to make decisions and improve outcomes.
