Talent Acquisition Specialist

Meet Circuit Stream

Where education meets innovation. At Circuit Stream, we offer skill‑based, online programs for adults ready to upskill or reskill and an innovative summer camp experience for youth in fields like technology, design, and business. We partner with the best universities in North America to deliver hands‑on, applied learning that opens doors to future opportunities. Whether you’re building your career or helping others build theirs, you’ll thrive in a fast‑paced environment that values innovation, results, personal growth, and a collaborative team culture.

Great programs do not run without great people. This role sits at the centre of the hiring engine that finds the teammates, instructors, teaching assistants, and youth experience coordinators who bring Circuit Stream’s programs to life.

We are not looking for someone who posts a job and waits for the internet to do the rest. You will build pipelines before roles become emergencies, move strong candidates through the process quickly, keep hiring managers aligned, and make sure no great candidate disappears into a black hole.

You will recruit across three very different hiring motions: year‑round Head Office roles, specialist Adult Bootcamp instructors, and high‑volume seasonal Pre‑University teams across multiple markets. The pace changes throughout the year, but the standard does not: the right people, in the right roles, ready on time.

This is a hands‑on individual contributor role. You will have clear goals, real ownership, and a visible impact on the quality and growth of our programs.

• Proactively source candidates through Linked In, university relationships, job boards, industry communities, referrals, events, and targeted outreach.

• Set expectations, follow up quickly, and keep candidates informed throughout the process.
