Creative Recruiting Specialist

At deeplearning.ai, we are building new educational programs to equip people for the future of work. We believe the rise of AI will lead to a series of dramatic shifts that will fundamentally change many of today’s jobs. We want to create new paths for employees to train to fully participate in emerging fields created by AI.
 
deeplearning.ai is looking to hire a recruiter to develop and run creative recruiting programs. In this role, you will be responsible for sourcing, scheduling, and placing high impact positions, with a specific focus on software engineers. You will also be responsible for creating and running new recruiting programs to build up our talent pipeline.
 
As a member of our recruiting team, you will play a strategically important role for deeplearning.ai. You will be responsible for helping to bring talented and passionate employees to join us. You will also play a key role in building programs to help people break into the wider field of artificial intelligence.
 
Here’s what you will do:
  • You’ll be the first point of contact to help deeplearning.ai identify and reach out to qualified candidates. You’ll play a key role in making sure we are consistently finding strong candidates, often from unexpected places.
  • You’ll coordinate and monitor the full interview process. You’ll manage our candidate tracking system, and assist hiring managers in setting up and running their searches to a successful conclusion.
  • You’ll work with stakeholders at deeplearning.ai, as well as across affiliated companies, to understand their hiring needs, and design searches to meet those needs. This will mean working with a large pool of candidates and being comfortable creating a process to place them in a wide variety of positions.  
  • You’ll develop relationships with candidates to understand their motivation and career goals. You’ll explain the company’s mission and cultural values, and how it fits with where they would like to go with their career.
 
Here’s what we’d like to see:
  • Excellent interpersonal ability; strong communications and relationship skills. Are you a warm and likable person? Would you enjoy speaking with someone new, getting to know them quickly, explaining deeplearning.ai’s mission and story, and helping explore whether there might be a good fit?
  • Operational excellence. We think great recruiting is critical for deeplearning.ai’s success. Are you able to manage the recruiting process - scheduling, interviews, offers - for multiple candidates simultaneously? Can you analyze the various processes and figure out ways to make improvements?
  • Creativity. We do things a little differently in our recruiting programs. Are you able to step away from the day­-to­-day, see the bigger picture, and help us develop innovative programs to improve our recruiting practice?
  • 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.
We hope you will fit well with our team’s culture:  
  • Strong work ethic. All of us believe in our work’s ability to change human lives, and consequently work not just smart, but also hard.
  • Growth mindset: We are eager to teach you new skills and invest in your continual development. But learning is hard work, so this is something we hope you’ll want to do.
  • Good team member: We care and watch out for each other. We’re humble individually, and go after big goals together.
  • Flexibility: You should be flexible in your tasks and do whatever is needed, ranging from lower-level tasks like scheduling to high level recruiting strategy.
 
This is a full-time position based in or around Palo Alto, California. You must already have, or be able to obtain, authorization to work in the United States.
