Recruiting Coordinator (Contract)

Mercury is building financial products to help startups and small businesses scale. Turns out this requires a lot of talented people, so we’re looking to add a Recruiting Coordinator to our recruiting team! This will initially be a 6 month contract, with the possibility of extension based on business needs.

As a Recruiting Coordinator, you will work closely with our recruiters, hiring managers, and interviewers to support Mercury’s growth. This role is critical to our ability to scale. You’ll work with the team to manage interview logistics, find ways to make the recruiting team more efficient, and constantly seek out ways to create magic moments for candidates.

Here are some things you’ll do on the job:

• Build trust with recruiters, hiring managers, interviewers, candidates and founders
• Schedule interviews for candidates, playing calendar tetris across time zones
• Build and maintain scheduling templates through GoodTime, own candidate coordination, and open and update new roles within Workday and Greenhouse 
• Make a friendly first impression on candidates and strive to create an incredible candidate experience with every interaction moving forward
• Actively think of ways to improve and scale recruiting processes, ideally using data or automation
• Become an expert in our recruiting systems, tools, and processes
• Document interview processes and facilitate interviewer trainings 
• Partner with other RCs and the Recruiting Operations team to uplevel our processes

You should:

• Have 6+ months of scheduling or coordination experience
• Be extremely attentive to detail and love creating order
• Think about how to automate as much of your job as possible
• Have systems you use to keep track of all your work when you have many competing priorities
• Obsess about creating a truly delightful experience for candidates, recruiters and hiring teams
• Communicate with clarity, thought, and precision
• Approach projects with creativity and an emphasis on quality
• Love working with people and building high-trust partnerships

 

Our target new hire base salary ranges for this role are the following:

• US employees in New York City, Los Angeles, Seattle, or the San Francisco Bay Area: $45 / hour.
• US employees in other areas: $40 / hour.
• Canadian employees (any location): 40 CAD / hour.
