Do you excel at attracting and selecting A-players, top performers who elevate the bar, align with our culture, and stay engaged from day one? Can you turn hiring rigor into retention by crafting role-specific 30/60/90 onboarding, training calendars, and feedback loops that accelerate ramp and reduce turnover? Do you bring HR operations discipline to keep benefits, compliance, and HRIS accurate while supporting employees with discretion and speed? Can you partner with trial-paced managers to forecast headcount, diagnose team needs, and deliver weekly recruiting dashboards that drive decisions? Final question: When faced with a challenge, do you get excited or run away?
