Thanks for writing this post, Abraham! I agree that recruiting is a very important and high leverage function that is currently undervalued as a career path by job seekers. I started managing the (new) recruiting function at CEA earlier this year but only after being directly invited to apply for the role; I very likely would have overlooked the opportunity and I think this would have been a mistake - which makes me worried others will do the same.

CEA is in a high-growth period and I think there's much opportunity to experiment with finding more effective recruiting strategies -- right now we're adding capacity to our Recruiting team which will allow us to keep up with our hiring needs while adding some flexibility to think strategically about our approach to finding talent.

I'd likewise like to hear from anyone motivated to explore their fit for recruiting after reading this post. I'm keen to find a very organized person who broadly understands the EA ecosystem, and while past recruiting experience would be a bonus, I don't think it's necessary.
