About the Role

We’re looking for a Talent Acquisition professional to join OWLED Media and help us build teams across creative, content, business, and tech functions.

Since we hire a lot of creative and internet-native talent, we’re looking for someone who understands where great talent actually hangs out online. LinkedIn and job portals are important, but so are Instagram, YouTube, creator communities, and other social platforms.

You should be comfortable with both active and passive sourcing, speaking to candidates, understanding different creative profiles, and owning the hiring process from sourcing to closure.

Conduct initial screening calls and assess candidates against role requirements.

Work closely with hiring managers to understand requirements and improve candidate quality.

Sourcing & Talent Mapping

Proactively identify and reach out to strong candidates who may not be actively looking for a job.
Build relationships with potential candidates before there is an immediate hiring requirement.
Pitch OWLED, our work, culture, and relevant opportunities in a way that creates genuine interest.
Convert passive candidates into potential leads and build a long-term talent pipeline.
Stay connected with high-potential candidates even when there isn’t an immediate fit.

Recruitment Operations

Maintain candidate trackers and ATS data accurately.
Manage interview scheduling, follow-ups, feedback, and candidate communication.
Support offer rollouts and ensure smooth closure and onboarding coordination.
Track hiring metrics and maintain visibility on open positions and pipelines.

Candidate & Employer Experience

Ensure candidates have a smooth and professional experience throughout the hiring process.
Represent OWLED’s culture and opportunities effectively when speaking with candidates.
Support hiring campaigns, recruitment drives, and employer branding initiatives when required.

Who We’re Looking For

6 months to 2 years of experience in Talent Acquisition / Recruitment, preferably in an agency, startup, media, creative, or fast-paced environment.
Strong experience in end-to-end recruitment, active sourcing, and passive sourcing.
Someone who is genuinely active on social media and understands platforms like Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and creator communities.
Ability to identify and source creative talent beyond traditional job portals.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Good understanding of candidate screening and hiring processes.
Highly organized, proactive, and comfortable handling multiple roles simultaneously.
Strong ownership and ability to work with minimal supervision.

Understand internet culture and can identify good creative talent from their online presence.
Have experience building and maintaining passive talent pipelines.
