How your work moves the mission forward

More broadly, help candidates understand what it's like to work at Intrinsic's (hint: it's great!), and help potential candidates to become aware of us as a highly desirable employer.
  • Improve our Infrastructure - Optimize our Applicant Tracking System and supporting infrastructure. Utilize the latest technologies to enable the team to focus their energies on high-leverage opportunities. Identify opportunities for consolidation or integration. Manage vendor relationships and contract negotiations.
  • Own Recruiting Compliance - Ensure that every candidate is ready-to-hire at time of offer and ready-to-start before their first day. For each candidate, confirm that all offer and compensation details are correct, a background check has been adjudicated, they have a right to work in the country, and more. Liaise with Intrinsic Legal to uphold standards and implement necessary regulatory initiatives and requirements.
  • Report our Progress - Work with recruiting leadership to develop regular reporting on our top KPIs. Ensure accuracy by monitoring data integrity in all Recruiting systems. Use this data to make recommendations for improvement.
