HR Apprentice

APPSeCONNECT is looking for a Talent Acquisition Intern to join our HR team for a structured, hands-on internship built around a 6-week onboarding and growth plan. You'll move quickly from learning our hiring systems to running real sourcing and screening work, with a clear path toward owning a full requisition end-to-end and being considered for a full-time conversion.

This is not a shadowing-only internship. Every Friday you'll deliver a working output from that week and pick up the next assignment — deliverables are scoped as first-pass working drafts, not polished reports, because the plan trades initial depth for speed of ramp-up.

Requirements

Weeks 1–3 — Foundation: System & First Live Contact

•     Map department-wise hiring trends and role inventory from Zoho Recruit, flagging early skill and competency patterns.

•     Shadow and document the full Zoho Recruit → Zoho People flow: JD, posting, screening, offer, e-sign/BGV, and onboarding hand off.

•     Learn candidate calling and pitching — starting as a shadow, moving to co-pilot on live calls by midweek of Week 3.

Weeks 4–6 — Live Execution: Independence & Market View

•     Run your first fully independent candidate calls on a low-stakes requisition, logging outcomes for review.

•     Research product positioning and gather market/customer feedback relevant to the hiring pitch.

•     Map competitor companies, build an eligible-candidate list, and draft and publish a LinkedIn sourcing post.

Beyond Week 6 — Growth Path

•     Own a full requisition end-to-end in Zoho Recruit through onboarding in Zoho People, including sitting in on offer discussions (Months 2–4).

•     Progress toward handling multiple requisitions, KPI fluency, and a conversion-to-hire checkpoint (Months 4–5+).
