What do Recruiters and people teams in Mountain View work on?

Recruiters in this role typically manage end-to-end hiring: writing briefs with hiring managers, sourcing and screening candidates, running interview processes and closing offers. In a city whose employers include Google's global headquarters, Waymo, Intuit and Microsoft's Silicon Valley campus, many recruiting roles sit inside large, well-resourced people functions that focus on technical and engineering talent. The presence of AI-focused teams at those employers means recruiters are often expected to understand the work they are hiring for. Nearby academic institutions such as Stanford's AI lab and Carnegie Mellon University's Silicon Valley campus also influence the local talent pipeline that recruiters work with.

Skills and experience employers ask for

Descriptions on the board mention recommender systems and large language model knowledge most often, followed by agents and APIs โ€” reflecting the technical domains these recruiters are expected to hire into. Conventional recruiting tools matter less in the skills language here than domain literacy. Candidates who can demonstrate familiarity with AI product development, combined with strong sourcing and assessment practice, appear best aligned with what employers are signalling.

Make your application specific to the work

  1. Clarify the technical domain Before applying, identify whether the team hires primarily for AI research, product engineering or another function, so you can tailor your sourcing examples to that domain.
  2. Show domain familiarity early Many descriptions here mention AI concepts such as large language models and recommender systems; address your understanding of these areas in your cover note or opening summary.
  3. Prepare end-to-end examples These roles skew senior, so expect to walk through complete hiring campaigns โ€” from brief through offer โ€” with metrics and context for each stage.
  4. Confirm on-site expectations Most roles listed here appear to require on-site attendance, so confirm the location arrangement and your availability before submitting your application.
