Lead structured interviews and candidate assessments; ensure consistency, clarity, and high-quality bar setting across interview panels. Navigate ambiguity as roles evolve; work fluidly in 0→1 environments where requirements shift and speed is paramount. Communicate candidate insights, market trends, and pipeline analytics to leadership; influence decision-making through data. Drive a best-in-class candidate experience from first touch to close. Maintain and optimize recruiting workflows, ATS usage, and operational processes to improve speed, quality, and efficiency.
