Role Overview
We're looking for a driven HR Intern to own the full 360° recruitment cycle for our growing remote team — not a shadow-and-observe role, but hands-on ownership from sourcing to onboarding. You'll work directly with experienced mentors while making real hiring decisions that shape our organization.
Key Responsibilities
• Write and publish job postings for live, global roles
• Source, screen, and shortlist candidates from around the world
• Schedule and conduct interviews; help develop evaluation frameworks
• Maintain accurate, confidential candidate and personnel records
• Assist with HR policy documentation, compliance basics, and employee benefits inquiries
• Help manage HR databases and HRIS/productivity tools
• Contribute to internal communications that foster a positive remote work culture
What You'll Gain
• Full ownership of real recruitment decisions from day one
• Direct mentorship from experienced HR professionals
• Exposure to HR operations within a digital education environment
• Collaborative, international team culture with genuine creative freedom
Qualifications
• Currently enrolled in or recently completed a degree in HR, Business Administration, Psychology, or related field
• Foundational understanding of HR concepts and genuine interest in an HR career
• Familiarity with HR policies, compliance basics, and personnel management principles
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to multitask remotely
• Clear written and verbal English communication; additional languages a plus
• Comfortable with digital tools (spreadsheets, document management, HRIS systems)
• Able to work professionally and respectfully across cultures and time zones
Transparency Note
• As an early-stage startup with a limited budget, this is currently an unpaid internship. We share this openly upfront and welcome applicants for whom this arrangement genuinely works.
