The Role

VMware wants a Talent Acquisition Specialist in Paterson, NJ whose default reaction to a surprising number is curiosity, not panic. A freelance Talent Acquisition Specialist seat at VMware that pairs $81,000 - $105,000 with ownership, collaboration, and a long-term growth track.

Key Responsibilities

  • Time the Paterson launch against what VMware can realistically staff
  • Reforecast mid-quarter when the NJ numbers stop matching the plan
  • Keep the Talent Acquisition Specialist scorecard tied to outcomes, not activity
  • Reallocate spend toward whatever business channel is actually working
  • Build the 5-quarter view that survives contact with reality
  • Synthesize qualitative and quantitative inputs into clear strategy briefs

What You'll Bring

  • Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
  • Eagerness to take ownership and run with new responsibilities
  • A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake
  • A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame

We built VMware in Paterson, NJ to give business teams the forever-learning tools they actually deserve. Our values show up in small daily choices, not just a poster on the wall.

Expect $81,000 - $105,000 plus full medical, dental, and vision benefits, generous paid time off, and real mentorship from day one.

This opening is current to the minute and openly recruiting today.

If a $81,000 - $105,000 role with room to grow sounds right, VMware would love to hear from you.
