About Ramp
Ramp is building the smart infrastructure for finance teams, embedded in the transaction flow of every dollar a business spends. We automate how over $200B in annualized spend flows in and out of 70,000+ companies: authorizing payments, flagging risk, categorizing spend, and closing books.
The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving.
We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome.
The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same.
If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it.

Contract Recruiter Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a contract recruiter in New York?
New York does not require a state-issued license to work as a contract recruiter, so the path centers on education and experience. Most hiring managers expect at least a bachelor's degree in human resources, business, or a related field, along with hands-on sourcing or coordination experience. Professional certifications such as PHR or SHRM-CP are well recognized by New York employers and strengthen a candidate's profile considerably, particularly for roles in financial services and healthcare.
How much do contract recruiters make in New York?
Contract recruiters in New York earn a median of about $84,380 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $56,040 for the lowest 10% to over $149,990 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire contract recruiters in New York?
Employers hiring contract recruiters in New York right now include BDA, Ramp, and Stepful, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. New York's density of financial institutions, health systems, and global technology firms means contract recruiting assignments here tend to run longer and cover higher volumes than in most other states.
Which New York cities have the most contract recruiter jobs?
New York, Atlanta, and Purchase account for the largest share of contract recruiter openings in New York. New York City dominates because of its concentration of investment banks, law firms, health systems, and corporate headquarters that require ongoing talent acquisition support, while Albany draws volume from state government and healthcare networks, and Buffalo's growing healthcare and financial sectors anchor activity in western New York.
Are there remote contract recruiter jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 71% of contract recruiter openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how much of the work, sourcing, screening, and coordination, can be done without being on-site. The roles most likely to be fully remote are those focused on corporate technology or professional services hiring, while healthcare and high-touch executive search roles more often require at least some in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a contract recruiter in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a recruiting coordinator or talent acquisition assistant role, which large New York employers use as a structured on-ramp to full-cycle work. Northwell Health, JPMorgan Chase, and major staffing firms headquartered in New York City regularly post associate-level recruiting roles that require no prior recruiting background. Candidates coming from adjacent roles in HR administration, customer success, or account management tend to interview well, and earning a SHRM-CP or PHR while building a candidate pipeline gives a concrete edge.
Where can I find and apply to contract recruiter jobs in New York?
