Jacob Palmer
@jacobbradleypalmer
Strategic remote recruiter specializing in multilingual, full-cycle talent acquisition.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic recruiter with over a decade of experience sourcing and hiring talent across corporate, healthcare, and multilingual markets. I specialize in full-cycle recruiting, global onboarding, compliance management, and building high-performing teams through proactive sourcing and referral networks.
At Tripadvisor I directed global contact center hiring, reduced time-to-fill by 30%, and improved new-hire retention through post-hire check-ins and onboarding feedback loops. I have deep experience in multilingual recruitment (French, German, Portuguese, Japanese) and conducting cultural-fit assessments for international candidates.
My background includes healthcare recruiting where I sourced credentialed caregivers, maintained compliance documentation, and partnered with case managers to align placements with patient care plans. I have also led training programs, diversity hiring initiatives, and employer-branding efforts that increased intern-to-hire conversion and market expansion.
I am passionate about candidate experience, retention, and cultural fit, and I seek remote recruiting roles where I can apply my expertise in global hiring, process improvement, and stakeholder collaboration to drive hiring efficiency and long-term employee success.
