About the Role
Location: Remote, United States
Role Type: Contract, Full-Time
Duration: 6 months
Reporting to: Senior Manager, Talent Engagement
Compensation: $35-45 per hour (full-time, approximately 40 hours/week)
CodePath is launching a new AI fellowship program, Claude Corps, and we need experienced recruiters to help us select our first cohorts of fellows. Over the 6-month contract you'll work two intensive screening waves, each roughly 10 weeks, selecting hundreds of fellows across the two cohorts from thousands of applicants. This is high-volume, structured screening work with real stakes: the people you advance will go on to shape the next generation of AI practitioners.
As a Recruiting Specialist, you own the screening. Here's what the funnel looks like:
A short application with a couple of written questions → a practical take-home assessment → a 25-minute conversation → a final-round Super Day, consisting of two 1:1 conversations.
You'll review written applications, conduct the 25-minute structured conversations, and score candidates against a six-competency rubric, managing your own pipeline in Greenhouse and deciding who advances to the Super Day. The work is fast-paced, calibration-heavy, and requires someone who can hold a consistent bar across hundreds of conversations. Between waves, you'll help sharpen the rubric and the process so the next cohort's selection runs better than the last.
What you will do
Screen and evaluate candidates
Review written applications against a structured rubric
Conduct 30-minute structured interviews focused on six competencies, probing for specificity and depth rather than rehearsed answers
Own your pipeline
Manage your assigned candidates end-to-end in Greenhouse, from application review through disposition, scheduling, and stage transitions
Handle scheduling exceptions, no-shows, and reschedules without bottlenecking the process
Monitor take-home completion deadlines and flag candidates at risk of dropping off
Calibrate and improve
Participate in calibration syncs with the screening team, reviewing borderline cases, and aligning on scoring standards
Flag patterns you notice in the applicant pool, rubric gaps, ambiguous scoring criteria, or competency questions that aren't differentiating
Maintain inter-rater reliability by regularly comparing your pass-through rate and scoring distribution against the team baseline
Help refine the rubric and process between screening waves
Key success metrics
Sustain 35 screens per week (application reviews plus structured interviews) at consistent quality throughout each screening wave
95%+ of your candidates move through stages within SLA timelines
Scoring distribution and pass-through rate stay within the team's calibration band
This role may be right for you if
You've run high-volume structured interviews before and know what it feels like to hold a bar across 30+ conversations a week without drifting
You've worked in university recruiting, campus hiring, or fellowship/cohort selection where you're evaluating potential as much as experience
- You've worked in some aspect of recruiting and are looking for your first step to become a Recruiter.
You're comfortable with a tight rubric and daily calibration, and you see those as tools that make you better, not constraints that slow you down
You've used an ATS (ideally Greenhouse) to manage candidate pipelines and can keep your own house clean without someone chasing you
You're comfortable working alongside AI tools while utilizing your own judgment has to stay in the loop
You care about equity in hiring and understand why structured processes exist: to reduce bias, not to create bureaucracy

What We Do
We deliver industry-vetted courses and career support centered on the needs of first-generation and low-income students. Our students train with senior engineers, intern at top companies, and rise together to become the tech leaders of tomorrow. Breaking into the tech industry requires a number of factors: industry-relevant knowledge, connections, specific hard and soft skills, an understanding of how to navigate the job search, and the technical interviewing process. Many college CS programs don't have the depth of resources or support needed to practically set students up for career success, like keeping up with the latest industry trends, building employer partnerships, and providing access to critical internships where students can get a foothold in the industry. Even the most well-funded, prestigious programs can have gaps that prevent a comprehensive education.
Why Work With Us
We believe tech excellence can be within reach for anyone given the right resources and the chance to apply them. When you work here, you're helping make that real. If building a more inclusive future of tech alongside bright students, college programs, and top employers sounds like your kind of work, CodePath is the place.
