Description
NOTICE: This recruiting role is unlike anything you've encountered before.
Crossover is seeking a university recruiter to identify and secure the next cohort of 50 Alpha AI Engineer Interns: top-performing undergraduates from Stanford and MIT, prepared to dedicate their summer to building with generative AI. Your mission? Assemble that full class. Quickly.
You'll own the complete recruitment process: from cultivating relationships and coordinating event details to executing high-volume candidate outreach and driving conversions. You'll operate with the agility of a startup founder, the instinct of a talent scout, and the precision of a sales executive. This isn't about fancy networking dinners or branded merchandise displays. It's about delivering outcomes: 50 students, summer 2026, Austin, TX. You'll receive complete support — independence, resources, defined objectives — with full accountability.
This position is designed for someone who embraces difficulty, takes ownership of their results, and knows precisely how to identify and recruit elite CS talent.
The fundamentals:
- $75,000/year + complete travel expenses covered
- Full-time position with benefits
- US-based (with significant travel to MIT and Stanford)
You may be our perfect fit if you:
- Possess magnetic energy that captures attention — and drives student attendance
- Approach logistics as strategic planning and excel at perfecting every element
- Maintain composure under pressure and adapt seamlessly when circumstances change unexpectedly
- Understand how to command attention, advance a pipeline, and achieve ambitious targets
- Embrace the rhythm of campus environments and the work of converting curiosity into commitment
- Excel in constant travel — packed and ready, schedule booked, consistently anticipating next moves
If you're an alum of Stanford or MIT — or you've mastered recruitment on those campuses — this represents the most impactful recruiting opportunity available.
What you will be doing
- Developing and overseeing a high-yield recruitment pipeline of Stanford and MIT CS/ML students from first contact through accepted offers
- Managing all logistical aspects of on-campus recruitment activities — including venue reservations, catering arrangements, and promotional materials
- Making frequent trips to MIT and Stanford to conduct in-person sessions, information presentations, and dynamic engagement with students and faculty
- Executing a structured, data-driven recruitment effort: tracking outreach numbers, event turnout, assessment progression, and final enrollment rates
- Serving as the primary campus representative for the Alpha AI Engineer internship — accessible, well-organized, and trustworthy
What you will NOT be doing
- Depending on employer branding or HR teams to generate interest — you control the entire process from start to finish
- Making occasional campus visits or conducting "soft" recruitment — this requires intensive, continuous effort every week
- Delegating logistics to support staff — you'll secure venues, arrange shipments, and coordinate catering yourself
- Maintaining traditional business hours — prime engagement windows align with student availability: evenings, weekends, exam periods
Key responsibilities
Recruit and confirm a complete, exceptional Alpha AI Engineer internship cohort (50+ accepted students) from Stanford and MIT by May 2026 using targeted outreach, campus events, and systematic application pipeline oversight.
Candidate requirements
- 1+ years of university recruiting, admissions work, or event-driven outreach experience
- Documented track record in high-volume outreach and student mobilization
- Confirmed capability to handle sophisticated event logistics autonomously
- Strong communicator, exceptionally organized, independent operator
- US-based with capacity to travel regularly to Stanford and MIT
Nice to have
- Graduate of Stanford or MIT
- Prior experience recruiting for CS/ML or similar technical talent pools
- History in sales, campaign management, or startup operations
