Candidates who have full-cycle recruiting experience, familiarity with applicant tracking systems, and a background supporting high-growth teams stand out.

Chicago's mix of large hospital systems, global financial firms, and an expanding tech corridor in Fulton Market means demand comes from a broad range of employer types and sizes.
