TECHNICAL RECRUITER

RESPONSIBILITIES:

As a SpaceX recruiter, you will run a full desk with a variety of duties and responsibilities focused on the sourcing, screening, interviewing, and onboarding of top talent candidates to fill mission critical positions (pun intended). In many cases, you are candidates' first encounter with SpaceX and it is your job to represent the company with professionalism, pride, and enthusiasm. We work in teams and focus on collaboration yet require a high degree of autonomy. So while you are not expected to simply go it alone, you are expected to show initiative, take responsibility, and run with tasks to completion.

Your day-to-day routine will change often as hiring priorities shift, but there is a basic set of activities you can expect to run with daily, including, but not limited to:

• Meet with your client groups to discuss headcount, new requisitions, hiring strategy, and/or interview feedback - you truly act as a partner to your clients and not merely as an order taker

• Screen candidates who apply to requisitions - as the SpaceX name brand grows, our job postings continue to fill up with stellar candidates

• Source candidates - often the best candidates are the ones not actively looking

• Discuss candidates you have screened with your client groups and recommend top candidates for interviews

• Give tours to candidates before their onsite interview - this is a chance to showcase all the exciting things going on at SpaceX

• Attend interviews alongside your client groups to act as another set of eyes and ears in evaluating candidates

• Once candidates are approved for hire, you will begin the HR onboarding process including initiating background checks, completing reference checks, negotiating offer packages including extending offer letters, and issuing new hire paperwork - you'll have plenty of support from the HR, benefits, and compensation departments to make this process as seamless as possible

Some days you will have multiple candidates coming onsite for interviews and you will spend that time giving tours and coordinating the candidate experience. Other days, you will need to fill your candidate pipeline and will spend the majority of the day screening/sourcing candidates. No day is the same here and the pace moves fast, but ultimately your job is to effectively attract, organize, and manage the flow of the country's most talented individuals to help advance the mission to Mars!

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree and 1+ years of recruiting experience; or associate degree and 2+ years of experience; or 3+ years of professional experience as a recruiter in lieu of a degree

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Experience recruiting electrical, mechanical, manufacturing and/or aerospace engineers

• Experience with high volume recruiting

• Experience with full life cycle recruiting (screening candidates, facilitating interviews and extending offers)

• Ability to distinguish between the top 50% and the top 5% of talent within their respective fields

• Demonstrated expertise in non-standard recruiting methods: cold calling candidates and companies, organizing and executing ad hoc networking events, identifying industry experts and finding unique methods to engage with them, creating unique targeted sourcing campaigns, etc.

• Comfortable interfacing directly with hiring managers including director and VP level technical leaders

• Ability to build strong relationships with both hiring managers and candidates

• Ability to accurately present but not oversell candidates to client groups; influence decisions by acting as the subject matter expert on talent but avoid dictating client decisions

• Ability to multi-task and operate with little direction while still being an active team member

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

• Available to work extended hours and weekends as needed

• This position is based in Cape Canaveral, FL and requires being onsite - remote work not considered

• Ability to pass Air Force background check for Cape Canaveral

ITAR REQUIREMENTS:

• To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
