**Very Big Things (VBT)**, an international award-winning digital product agency, is looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist. We have offices in the US (Miami), Croatia (Zagreb), and Ukraine (Odesa), with our core business being the development of web and/or mobile platforms we create for our US clients. We are hiring for our **Odesa (Ukraine) office.**

Why do we need a **Talent Acquisition Specialist**, and what would that role entail? If VBT has shown something to the world apart from extraordinary products, it is our **desire to grow and evolve as a company**. The growth part is best exemplified because our company grew from the initial 14 employees in 2018 to 73 employees in 2021. Since we want our clients to have **the best possible experience**, which requires **the best possible people**, we must continue that strong growth in 2021. A Talent Acquisition Specialist would help us reach that goal by **attracting new colleagues** to the team, forging ahead with the** selection process from end to end**, and help keep that **hiring velocity (or drive it higher) in the future**.

**Talent Acquisition Specialist responsibilities the way we see them:**
- Coordinate hiring needs with Team Leads/Management across all offices
- Ability to execute selection processes end-to-end
- Relationship management with potential future colleagues and building a candidate database
- Constantly look for improvement points in the current hiring process, take ownership and suggest changes

**What you will be doing:**
- Determining and defining hiring needs with internal stakeholders (team leaders and management)
- Defining the job ad descriptions in collaboration with team leads/managers in question
- Sourcing candidates using all possible channels: job portals, LI Recruiter, Facebook groups, events...
- Selection - CV parsing, candidate feedback, interview scheduling and interviews themselves, note-taking and opinion writing, sync with other members of the selection process (TL's/Managers), offer and rejection letters
- Administrating the whole process in BambooHR
- Proactively participating in VBT employer branding activities like conferences, events, job fairs, etc.

**What we expect from you:**
- min. 2 years of experience in end-to-end recruiting, preferably within the IT industry (but not necessary)
- Ability to create quality relationships with candidates using both Ukrainian and English language **(B2 level minimum)**
- Desire to improve hiring processes and bring them to a higher level and therefore a high level of autonomy and ownership
- Understanding different communication channels for different job ads and successfully navigating relevant digital platforms (LinkedIn as a headhunting tool - boolean search, etc.)
- Previous experience with using an ATS (in our case, BambooHR) is a plus

**What we offer:**
- Monthly salary (gross): $2000-3000
- Work and gain experience in an international team, searching for candidates in foreign markets
- Agency work requires multiple roles, so different challenges will arise for hiring each role - believe me, it's never boring
- Flexible work hours and ability to periodically work from home (even when there is no global pandemic)
- Fun and relaxed company culture where we care about teammates (Friday team lunches provided by the company, chill, beer after work encouraged, medical checkup every two years, periodic team buildings, etc.)
- Office in Odessa's center
