Recruiting Coordinator
Recruiting Coordinators in AI companies own the operational heartbeat of hiring, managing complex interview scheduling across time zones, maintaining clean ATS data, and serving as the primary point of contact for candidates from initial contact through offer stage. They distinguish themselves from general administrative roles by taking on systems ownership—configuring ATS workflows, building recruiting dashboards, and identifying process bottlenecks before they slow hiring. These coordinators typically sit within Talent Operations or Recruiting teams at fast-scaling AI companies, where they partner closely with recruiters, hiring managers, and leadership to ensure that hiring never becomes the constraint on growth.
Measured across 34 of 35 open postings.
This role is advertised at one level, so a single figure for the role would describe none of them. Experience and pay are the midpoints for each level on its own.
| Level | Share | Median years | Median pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry | 94%(32) | 1.5 | $103k |
A dash means too few postings stated it to report a midpoint. Most companies do not publish a salary band, so pay is indicative rather than a market rate. 2 levels with fewer than 10 open postings are not shown.
“Identify repetitive work that could be simplified with AI or practical automation.”
“Hands on fluency with AI tools, and the judgment to know when to trust the output and when to override it”
Requirements are a share of every open posting, so a role missing from this list is one where almost nobody asks. Work mode is different: many postings never say, so that figure counts only the ones that do. A posting stops being advertised when it is filled, cancelled or reorganised, so read the last figure as how long these stay on the market, not as time to hire.
