Every person at Goodwill came through a recruiter first — someone who found them and helped them say yes.

As a Talent Acquisition Recruiter, that is you. You own your openings from the first conversation with a hiring leader to a new team member's first day, partnering with store and program leaders to hire well and on time. It is fast-paced, people-first work, and you will report to the Director, Human Resources.

Many of the people we hire are returning to work or starting over. As a second-chance employer, we believe a past should not close the door on a future — and you will help open those doors every day, the work behind our mission of Building Lives That Work.

What you’ll be doing

In a typical week, you will

  • Manage your assigned openings from intake through start date
  • Source and screen candidates, and keep a strong pool ready for roles that open again and again
  • Schedule interviews and keep candidates and hiring leaders up to date
  • Extend offers, coordinate background checks, and hand new hires off to orientation
  • Coach hiring leaders on the local talent market and on structured, fair interviews
  • Represent Goodwill at job fairs, hiring events, and community partner sites
  • Partner with Goodwill mission programs to connect job seekers facing barriers with open roles
  • Track results like time to fill and suggest ways to hire faster and better

Schedule

This is a full-time role based in our South Orlando office, primarily during regular business hours. Hiring events and store visits across Central Florida will sometimes call for early mornings, evenings, or weekends. If we move forward, we'll talk through what that looks like.
