Human Resources Intern

Duration: 6 months

Stipend- Paid Internship

99Yellow is a new-age HR startup reimagining how modern businesses build and scale their most important asset: people. We help high-growth companies and venture-backed startups solve their two biggest challenges: finding elite leadership talent and building a world-class HR foundation from day one.

We operate through two specialized service models:

• 99Yellow (Recruitment Services): Our high-velocity search engine. We specialize in hiring for the startups and family offices disrupting the D2C, Tech, AI, Fintech, Edtech Consulting, Infrastructure and other niche sectors.
• EezyHR (Fractional HR): Our HR-as-a-Subscription model for early-stage startups. We act as a plug-and-play HR department, handling everything from culture engineering to policy architecture.

99Yellow was founded by Shikha, an HR leader with a Master's from the University of Minnesota, USA, and 10+ years of leadership experience at the center of the Indian startup revolution. Our founder has spearheaded HR at boAt (Head of HR) and led people strategy for Sequoia-funded ventures like Emeritus and Grabhouse. We bring the blueprint of India's most iconic scale-ups to every client we partner with.

We are looking for a high-energy Talent Acquisition Intern who views recruitment as an art form and a science. This is a 100% remote role for someone hungry to learn the hunt and work on roles that move the needle for global startups.

• Advanced Sourcing: Go beyond the surface. Master LinkedIn, Naukri, and niche platforms to identify high-performing passive candidates.
• Passive Mapping: Conduct market intelligence to map out competitor talent pools and identify where the best talent is hiding.
• Role Architecture: Synthesize complex hiring needs into compelling Job Descriptions (JDs) and high-engagement social media posts.
• Intelligent Screening: Conduct deep-dive screenings. You will be trained to ask sharp, insightful questions that uncover a candidate's true potential and cultural alignment.
• Pipeline Management: Manage job portals and candidate tracking with 100% data integrity and high efficiency.
• The Goal: Drive real impact by closing at least 2–3 roles per month.

Who You Are

• Intellectually Curious: You want to understand how different business functions actually work, from Tech to Supply Chain.
• Strong Communicator: You have the professional polish to speak with senior leaders and represent a premium brand.
• A Researcher at Heart: You love the challenge of finding a needle in a haystack using Boolean searches and digital tools.
• Self-Disciplined: You thrive in a remote environment because you are organized, result-oriented, and take full ownership of your targets.

Why Join Us

• Elite Mentorship: Gain direct access to a founder who has scaled companies from garage-stage to unicorns.
• Deep Learning: You won't just do busy work. You will learn the mechanics of both executive recruitment and strategic HR consulting.
• Remote Flexibility: Work from wherever you are most productive, within a culture that values output over hours
