About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

A differentiated early career engine — design and run recruiting programs (internships, new grad pipelines, 0-2 years from school pipelines) that are durable, scalable, and distinctly Notion
New models for talent discovery — beyond traditional campus funnels; experiment with communities, hackathons, open-source, AI-native sourcing tools, and creative outreach that meets candidates where they are
Inspired evaluation frameworks — challenge conventional interview loops; build assessments that reveal how early career candidates think, learn, and create — not just what they already know
A compelling employer brand presence — partner with Comms, Design, and People to articulate why Notion is the best place to launch a career, and bring that story to life across channels, events, and touchpoints
Hiring team capability — coach and equip hiring managers and interviewers to assess early career talent with nuance, fairness, and high standards

Requirements

What you’ll need

2+ years of recruiter experience, with meaningful exposure to early career, university, or program-based hiring
A builder mentality — you're most energized when creating something new, not managing something established
Genuine curiosity about how to find and evaluate emerging talent; you're always experimenting with new sourcing channels, assessment formats, and candidate engagement strategies
Strong instincts for employer brand and candidate experience — you think about how every touchpoint shapes perception and builds (or erodes) trust
The ability to move between strategy and execution; you can design a program and then run it
Outstanding communication and relationship-building skills with candidates, hiring teams, and cross-functional partners
Comfort with data — you use it to make decisions, spot patterns, and make the case for what's working.
