Start your recruiting career somewhere worth talking about.

Beast is scaling fast and the people we hire matter as much as the ideas we put into the world. We’re looking for a Recruiting Associate to join the team helping us find, attract, and hire the people powering our content, brands, and operations across the Beast ecosystem.

This is a true entry-level recruiting role. You’ll be doing real recruiting work from day one: sourcing candidates, running screens, building pipelines, and developing the instincts that make a great talent professional. You’ll learn by doing, with senior recruiters alongside you to develop your skills and sharpen your judgment.

If you’re someone who is energized by talking to people, curious about what makes someone the right fit for a role, and excited to build a career in talent, this is where you start.

The Role

Reporting to the VP, Talent and Technology, you’ll own a portion of our open job reqs from the start. That means building sourcing strategies for open roles, conducting screens, managing candidate relationships and experience, and working closely with hiring managers to understand what they actually need, not just what’s written in the job description.

You’ll develop across the full recruiting lifecycle with a clear path toward owning roles end-to-end. The expectation is that you’re here to grow into a recruiter, and we’ll invest in you accordingly.

What You’ll Do

Source and Build Pipelines

  • Source candidates using LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, and AI-enabled tools and other resources
  • Build and maintain candidate pipelines for current and future openings
  • Research non-traditional talent pools for roles that blend creativity, operations, and execution
  • Stay plugged into creator, media, and internet culture to spot emerging talent early

Run the Process

  • Conduct initial outreach and screening conversations with candidates to assess fit, motivation, and potential and not just check boxes
  • Develop your own point of view on candidates and articulate it clearly to hiring managers
  • Build and manage candidate pipelines so roles never stall 

Support the Team

  • Partner with recruiters and hiring managers to understand what success looks like in each role
  • Deliver high-quality candidate shortlists that reflect a real understanding of role requirements
  • Contribute to employer branding and candidate experience initiatives
  • Analyze sourcing channel performance and flag what’s working (and what isn’t)

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
  • 0–1 years of experience in recruiting, HR, or a related field (internships and campus involvement count)
  • Strong written and verbal communication where candidates will want to actually respond back
  • Genuine curiosity about people: what motivates them, what they’re good at, why they’d thrive somewhere
  • High attention to detail without losing the ability to move fast
  • Learning agility - you absorb feedback quickly and put it to use immediately
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity; roles and priorities here evolve quickly

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience with AI tools for sourcing, research, or productivity
  • Familiarity with any applicant tracking system (ATS)
  • Exposure to high-volume or agency recruiting environments
  • Deep interest in creators, content, and internet culture
  • Basic data or reporting skills
