About the role

We’re looking for a Contract Recruiting Coordinator (6 months) to help create a seamless, welcoming, and well-organized interview experience for every candidate who engages with our team.

This position will be located in the San Francisco office and we are 5 days a week in the office. 

You’ll work closely with our recruiters to coordinate both virtual and in-person interviews, support executive involvement when needed, and ensure candidates have everything they need at our San Francisco & NYC office—from a smooth arrival to a thoughtful goodbye. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on operational excellence, loves solving logistics problems on the fly, and brings both warmth and precision to every interaction.

You will play a critical role within the organization by helping the company to operate seamlessly and supporting the team to reach peak performance. This is your opportunity to join us in person as an early employee and make a visible impact at a high-growth start-up.

  • Provide stellar candidate experience by addressing all candidates' needs and ensuring the process moves efficiently.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of candidate information, job postings, and recruitment activities in the applicant tracking system (ATS) and other recruiting tools.
  • Manage logistics for onsite interviews at our SF & NYC offices, including candidate arrival, workspace setup, and a thoughtful wrap-up
  • Proactively identify and solve day-of issues, including last-minute changes or scheduling conflicts
  • Communicate clearly and promptly with candidates and internal teams about interview logistics and updates
  • Provide any ad hoc support for events, meetings, etc. beyond interviews.

What we’re looking for

  • BA/BS degree or equivalent experience
  • 1+ years of recruiting coordination experience in-house at a tech company, especially at a fast-paced company
  • Detail-oriented and operationally strong—you know how to keep things moving
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Ability to solve ambiguous problems and thrive in a fast-paced environment
  • Personable and warm—you're great at making candidates feel welcome and supported
  • Ability to think on your feet and respond to last-minute changes

Bonus points

  • Experience working at a startup

Compensation

$25-$40/HR (Time and a half for overtime each day). Actual compensation awarded to successful candidates will be based on several factors, including market, years of experience, scope of the position, and individual qualifications objectively assessed during the interview process.

Inclusivity

Chalk is an equal opportunity employer. We value diversity and inclusion and provide reasonable accommodations to anyone in need of individualized support.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
