Job Description

This role will be based in San Francisco, Sunnyvale, Chicago, or New York.

At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business.

This role is designed for a recruiter who knows the craft and can also see the system behind it. You have carried reqs, coached others, and learned to spot the patterns that affect quality and speed. You know how to use AI to strengthen judgment, test workflows, and scale what works.
