About the Position
We are looking for a strategic thinker and skilled relationship-builder who can help us spearhead the planning and execution of a range of campus recruiting initiatives to attract outstanding interns and full-time employees across multiple countries and business areas.
The ideal candidate will excel at cultivating and maintaining productive partnerships with universities, career centres and student organisations throughout the region, while enthusiastically engaging potential candidates and thinking critically about our strategy to build this pipeline of talent. Campus recruiting experience is required, while knowledge of the recruiting landscape across the APAC region would be ideal, but is not a prerequisite.
Our team has a long record of hiring great recruiters and coaching them to their full potential, and we spend a lot of time teaching our new hires the ins and outs of recruiting at Jane Street. This includes a thoughtful onboarding process that offers a deep dive into our big-picture strategy and how it applies to our daily work. Over time, we will continue to support your professional growth with hands-on training and mentorship.
To start, your day-to-day will involve planning and attending various types of recruiting events (e.g., on-campus, virtual and in-office), building and maintaining relationships with universities and external partners, and communicating with prospective candidates. We will rely on your expertise in event coordination and relationship management to bring fresh ideas to our approach, and to help us anticipate where and how we need to engage to find the next wave of exceptional talent. This will require finding solutions to big, interesting problems while also getting the little details right.
This role sits on our Early Careers Partnerships & Initiatives (ECPI) team, which is part of our broader global Campus Recruiting team. Our ECPI team is a highly supportive, collaborative and inventive group of people that spans across our New York, London, Singapore, and Hong Kong offices.
Like our Recruiting team at large, we believe that Jane Street’s greatest assets are the people working around us. We love what we do, and perhaps more importantly, we love who we work with. This camaraderie fuels our passion for helping other teams at Jane Street find and hire great teammates of their own.
This person should expect to spend the first 6+ months in our New York City office before relocating to Hong Kong.
