ATTENTION: This isn't your grandmother's recruiting position.
Crossover is on the hunt for a dynamic campus recruiter who can identify, engage, and secure 50 exceptional Alpha AI Engineer Interns from the hallowed halls of MIT and Stanford. These elite undergraduates will spend their summer immersed in generative AI projects in Austin, TX. Your mission? Assemble this powerhouse class by summer 2026.
You'll orchestrate the entire recruitment symphony: cultivating key relationships, executing flawless events, conducting strategic outreach, and converting top prospects. We need someone who operates with startup intensity, scouts talent like a pro, and closes candidates with sales-leader precision. Forget traditional corporate recruiting—this role demands tangible results with clear metrics: 50 brilliant students, summer 2026, Austin, TX. We'll give you the autonomy, budget, and clear objectives you need—but expect you to deliver.
This opportunity is tailored for a high-performer who embraces challenges, takes full ownership, and possesses the exact formula for identifying and securing premium CS talent.
Key details:
- $75,000 annual salary with comprehensive travel coverage
- Full benefits package
- US-based position with extensive travel to MIT and Stanford campuses
You're our perfect match if you:
- Radiate infectious enthusiasm that captivates students and drives attendance
- Attack logistics with strategic precision and meticulous attention to detail
- Maintain composure under pressure and adapt seamlessly to sudden changes
- Command attention in any setting while methodically advancing prospects through your recruitment funnel
- Thrive in the dynamic campus environment and excel at converting interest into commitment
- Excel on the road—always prepared, organized, and one step ahead of schedule
MIT or Stanford alumni—or campus recruitment specialists with proven success at these institutions—will find this the most impactful recruiting role available today.
What you will be doing
- Architecting and managing a high-yield recruitment pipeline targeting MIT and Stanford's top CS/ML talent—from initial contact through offer acceptance
- Taking complete ownership of campus event logistics—securing venues, coordinating catering, producing promotional materials, and managing every detail
- Embarking on regular trips to both campuses to conduct engaging information sessions, presentations, and meaningful interactions with students and faculty
- Executing a data-driven campaign with rigorous tracking of outreach metrics, event attendance, assessment completion rates, and final yield statistics

What you will NOT be doing
- Passively relying on corporate branding or HR initiatives to generate interest—you're the driving force behind every aspect of recruitment success
- Making occasional campus appearances or implementing superficial recruitment tactics—this role demands persistent, intensive engagement
- Delegating operational details to support staff—you'll personally handle everything from venue bookings to promotional materials to refreshments
- Adhering to traditional office hours—your schedule will align with student availability: evenings, weekends, and even during exam periods
Key responsibilities
