  • Assess candidates for skills, experience, and overall fit, and guide them through the hiring process.

  • Maintain accurate recruiting activity and workflow management within the Applicant Tracking System.

  • Solve complex recruiting challenges, lead smaller projects, and provide guidance to less experienced colleagues.

Qualifications

  • 7+ years of recruiting experience, primarily from the agency side of talent acquisition.

  • Strong knowledge of talent acquisition best practices and how the function works across related teams.

  • Ability to solve complex problems, use sound judgment, and make decisions based on multiple sources of information.

  • Ability to communicate complex or sensitive information clearly and build alignment with stakeholders.

  • Demonstrated ability to lead smaller projects and serve as a resource to other team members.

  • Broad understanding of market dynamics, competition, and factors that differentiate Nielsen in the market.

  • Conceptual and practical expertise in talent acquisition, with general knowledge of related areas.

  • Proven success recruiting across multiple levels, including leadership and individual contributor roles.

  • Experience recruiting for Global Strategic Account Management roles.

  • Strong stakeholder management and account management skills.

  • Strong search execution experience, including search strategy, recruiting techniques, market mapping, and sourcing tools.

  • Strong experience using an Applicant Tracking System.

  • Excellent communication, organization, and judgment.

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; advanced degree or certifications preferred.
