Job Description

Talent Acquisition Specialist

Worthington Steel | Columbus, OH

Hybrid: 3 Days in Office / 2 Days Remote

Connect talent with opportunity. Build relationships. Create Career Momentum.

At Worthington Steel, we believe great companies are built by great people. We're looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist who enjoys connecting with people, finding creative ways to attract talent, and building relationships that make a difference.

In this role, you'll be part of our Talent Acquisition team, managing recruiting activities, building talent pipelines, and helping lead our campus, internship, military, and community recruiting efforts.

We're looking for someone who takes initiative, enjoys finding better ways to get things done, and is comfortable using technology, including AI tools, to improve how they work. You'll collaborate with hiring managers, HR partners, and external organizations to connect talented people with career opportunities across our business.

What You'll Do

Recruiting & Talent Sourcing

  • Manage assigned recruiting activities, including job postings, proactive sourcing, candidate screening, interview coordination, and candidate recommendations.
  • Partner with hiring managers and HR teams to understand hiring needs, develop sourcing strategies, and maintain strong candidate pipelines.
  • Use LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, professional networks, and other sourcing tools to identify and engage qualified candidates.
  • Create engaging, candidate-friendly job postings and recommend ways to improve job visibility and applicant engagement.
  • Provide a positive, responsive candidate experience throughout the recruiting process.

Campus, Internship & Community Recruiting

  • Manage campus recruiting activities, including university partnerships, career fairs, student engagement, and early-career talent pipelines.
  • Take an active role in managing our internship program, including recruiting, onboarding coordination, intern engagement activities, and opportunities to improve the program.
  • Build and maintain relationships with colleges, universities, technical schools, military organizations, and community partners.
  • Identify opportunities to connect Worthington Steel with students, veterans, transitioning military members, and other talent communities.
  • Plan, coordinate, and participate in recruiting events, career fairs, and community engagement activities.

Recruiting Technology, Reporting & Process Improvement

  • Maintain accurate and timely candidate and requisition information in our applicant tracking system (ATS).
  • Serve as a resource for ATS functionality, recruiting workflows, and system best practices.
  • Monitor recruiting activity and key metrics to identify trends, challenges, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Use AI tools and emerging technologies to improve recruiting efficiency, sourcing strategies, content creation, reporting, and other recruiting activities while maintaining appropriate data privacy and human oversight.
  • Stay informed about new recruiting technologies and recommend tools or approaches that could improve how we attract and engage talent.
  • Identify and help implement process improvements that create a better experience for candidates, hiring managers, and HR partners.
  • Partner with the Talent Acquisition team and Corporate Communications on recruitment marketing, employer branding, and candidate outreach initiatives.
  • Support immigration-related recruitment activities and documentation in partnership with HR and outside immigration counsel, as needed.

What the Work Is Really Like

This is a hands-on, relationship-driven role where no two days are exactly alike. One day you might be sourcing candidates for a challenging opening, and the next you could be connecting with students at a career fair, coordinating internship activities, or finding new ways to improve our recruiting processes.

You'll have the opportunity to manage your own priorities, contribute ideas, build relationships, and make a real impact on how we attract and engage talent. We value people who are curious, willing to try new approaches, and comfortable challenging the way things have always been done.

Some travel is expected, up to 15%, primarily for campus recruiting, career fairs, and company events.

What We're Looking For

  • 3–5 years of experience in talent acquisition, recruiting, human resources, or a related field.
  • Experience proactively sourcing, screening, and engaging candidates throughout the recruiting process.
  • Demonstrated experience exploring and using AI tools or emerging technologies to improve productivity, solve problems, or streamline work processes.
  • Strong relationship-building and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with candidates, hiring managers, and external partners.
  • Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • A proactive, resourceful, and solutions-oriented approach, with the ability to work independently and take ownership of responsibilities.
  • Experience working with recruiting technology, applicant tracking systems, and data to support recruiting activities and decisions.
  • A willingness to challenge existing processes, share ideas, and look for better ways to get things done.
  • Ability to travel up to 15%.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Oracle Recruiting Cloud or a similar ATS.
  • Experience with LinkedIn Recruiter and proactive candidate sourcing.
  • Experience managing campus recruiting, internship programs, or community outreach.
  • Experience supporting recruitment marketing or employer branding initiatives.
  • Experience applying AI tools specifically to recruiting, sourcing, reporting, or workflow improvements.
  • Experience supporting immigration-related recruitment processes.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
