[Contract] Emerging Talent Recruiter

About the role:

The Emerging Talent Recruiting team plays an integral role in bringing the next generation of talent to Samsara. The team oversees Samsara’s Intern and New Grad recruitment programs and will build future emerging talent recruitment programs as we grow.

You are also willing to travel up to 20% of the time. This is an exciting opportunity for someone passionate about emerging talent recruiting, who has scaled similar programs in previous roles and is excited to build upon the foundation of Samsara’s program. 

You should apply if:

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, reduce emissions, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
• You are the architect of your own career: If you put in the work, this role won’t be your last at Samsara. We set up our employees for success and have built a culture that encourages rapid career development, countless opportunities to experiment and master your craft in a hyper-growth environment.
• You’re energized by our opportunity: The vision we have to digitize large sectors of the global economy requires your full focus and best efforts to bring forth creative, ambitious ideas for our customers.
• You want to be with the best: At Samsara, we win together, celebrate together and support each other. You will be surrounded by a high-caliber team that will encourage you to do your best.
