Technical Recruiter

About the job

Google is known for our innovative technologies, products and services — and for the people behind them. The Google People Services (GPS) team focuses on providing an amazing experience to past, present and future Googlers. As a member of our recruiting team, you’ll be charged with finding unique candidates who bring an entrepreneurial spirit, a sense of resourcefulness and a diversity of thought to all that they do. You will be responsible for guiding candidates through our hiring process and introducing them to the magic of working at Google. You are driven, eager and able to use your creative skills to develop lasting relationships with both candidates and hiring managers. You’re also comfortable with numbers and can draw insights from analytics to make our hiring process smarter, friendlier and more efficient.

As a Technical Recruiter, you will act as trusted advisor to Engineering Leadership to support the growth of their teams. You’ll be a subject matter expert for advice on the outside-talent market, as well as how it compares to the talented Googlers we already have in the organization. You will develop search strategies and lead engagements to position Google for success today and well into the future. As a Technical Recruiter, you will understand external trends in the talent market, engage talent for Google opportunities, manage the client throughout the process, expertly assessing and evaluating talent for roles in Google, and leading discussions through to close.

Great just isn’t good enough for our People Operations team (known elsewhere as "Human Resources"). We bring the world’s most innovative people to Google and provide the programs that help them thrive. Whether recruiting the next Googler, refining our core programs, developing talent, or simply looking for ways to inject some more fun into the lives of our Googlers, we bring a data-driven approach that is reinventing the human resources field. You’ll play an essential role advancing a more diverse, accessible, equitable, and inclusive Google through our hiring, promotion, retention, and inclusion practices.
