Job Description
Exciting Opportunity at MSK: Talent Acquisition Advisor – Contract 6-month contract, with potential to extend This is a six-month contract to start, with extension based on performance. If a full-time role opens on our team and your work supports it, there’s a real path to converting and growing with us. Either way, it’s the same work, the same team, and the same expectations as any Advisor here. Do any of these sound familiar?
“Can you just send me more resumes?” “How many people applied?” “There’s just no one out there.” “I’m not in a rush, I know the perfect person is out there.” “I need them to start in two weeks,” for a role that took two months to recruit last time “Can you find someone exactly like my last person, but with more experience?” “Let’s just go to an agency.” Every recruiter has heard these.

That means you: Want to learn about MSK beyond the roles you recruit on: how the hospital runs, how clinical and research teams work together, and what our leaders are trying to solve. Can recruit for anything. volume, niche, leadership, corporate or clinical - you believe a great recruiter can pivot. You either know what works in each or have the scrappiness to figure it out. Make decisions based on evidence, not hunches or “how we’ve always done it.” Have honest, direct and empathetic conversations, even when it’s not what someone wants to hear. Know you guide and…
