Recruiter Intern
Jun 2026 - Aug 2026
- Under supervision, turned the hiring manager’s requirements into a structured interview rubric, calibrated interviewer feedback against evidence, and monitored where qualified candidates left the process.
- The team calibrated scorecards and intake criteria with 13 hiring managers; I supported research preparation, validation, and documentation under mentor review. The team gave managers a clearer basis for consistent people decisions; confirmed with my mentor that my contribution was limited to the assigned support and validation work.
- The team built segmented sourcing plans for 9 hard-to-fill engineering roles; I supported research preparation, validation, and documentation under mentor review. The team improved the quality of the candidate or employee experience; confirmed with my mentor that my contribution was limited to the assigned support and validation work.
- Under supervision, owned a search-strategy review using role-specific hiring priorities, resolved inconsistent screening criteria and completed interviewer calibration before opening the next slate.
- Under supervision, built a weekly hiring-funnel report using stage timestamps, reduced overdue candidate follow-ups by 32% and published an owner-specific response schedule.
Selected project
Recruiter — independent case study
Intern project team member
Sep 2025 - May 2026
- In a mentor-reviewed simulation, built a sourcing plan from a hiring intake, separating essential evidence from trainable skills; calibrated sample profiles with the hiring manager before expanding the recruiting search.
- As a second supervised exercise, improved candidate experience with a stated interview sequence and timely updates; audited hiring feedback for job-related evidence and returned unsupported recommendations for clarification.
- Under supervision, the team introduced candidate updates at each decision boundary with named owners; I supported research preparation, validation, and documentation under mentor review
- Built a fictitious employee-case set with a policy question, an incomplete record and an escalation need; defined access limits and separated evidence collection from the decision reserved for an authorized adviser.
- Prepared a manager guide with scenario-based questions and a review checklist; tested whether a reader could choose the correct next step without seeing confidential employee information.
- Owned the fictional employee-case review using documented policy, resolved inconsistent manager instructions and completed a restricted-access decision log for adviser review.
