HR built for growing companies

WE'RE HIRING

Recruitment & Sales Intern (Business Development)

AxioraPeople | Gurugram

AxioraPeople is building the HR help growing companies actually need — sized to their stage, not enterprise-priced. Built on decades of real, hands-on HR operating experience — not a consulting framework.

We're looking for a sharp, driven intern who can do both sides of the business: bring in clients and help us deliver for them. You'll spend part of your time getting founders and CHROs to say yes to AxioraPeople, and part of your time sourcing and screening candidates — across both tech and non-tech, niche profiles — for the roles we're hired to fill. If you like variety, want to understand both ends of the HR/staffing business, and follow through until the job is actually done, this is for you.

Location Gurugram (in-office, with local client visits across Delhi NCR)

Type Internship, full-time

Duration Flexible, starting immediately

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Sales & Business Development

- Reach out to founders, CHROs, and hiring managers directly — via calls, LinkedIn, email, and in-person meetings
- Use your own network, smart data search, and AI-powered tools to find and reach the right decision-makers — not just work off a static list
- Build real relationships, not just send templated messages — you'll represent AxioraPeople in every conversation
- Telecall prospects with confidence, handle objections, and move conversations toward a yes
- Meet clients face-to-face where it matters — coffee, their office, a quick site visit — whatever gets the deal moving
- Own the full deal cycle — first contact, follow-up, negotiation, close, invoicing, and payment collection. A deal isn't done until the payment has actually landed
- Follow up on outstanding payments professionally and persistently — chasing collections is part of the job

Recruitment & Sourcing
- Source candidates for open client mandates across both tech and non-tech, niche profiles — using LinkedIn Recruiter, job boards, referrals,



and AI-assisted sourcing tools
- Write and post job descriptions that actually attract the right candidates, not generic copy-paste listings
- Screen resumes and conduct first-round phone/video screens to assess fit, intent, and basic qualifications
- Build and maintain a talent pipeline — track candidates through the funnel from sourced to placed
- Coordinate interview scheduling between candidates and client hiring teams, and chase feedback on both sides
- Keep candidates warm and informed throughout the process — a good candidate experience reflects on AxioraPeople
- Work with the founding team to understand each client's hiring bar and calibrate sourcing accordingly

Shared / Cross-Functional
- Work closely with the founding team on strategy for bigger accounts, and run smaller deals or searches independently
- Maintain clean, up-to-date records — of prospects, clients, and candidates — so nothing falls through the cracks

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Minimum 6 months of hands-on recruitment/sourcing experience, ideally across niche profiles spanning both tech and non-tech roles
- Great relationship-building skills — you connect with people quickly and they trust you
- High integrity — you represent us honestly, keep your word, and never overpromise to a client or a candidate
- Great communication skills — clear, confident, and persuasive, on a call, in person, or in writing
- Comfortable using AI tools and data search to identify and reach the right prospects and candidates efficiently
- A closer's mindset for sales, and a sharp eye for talent on the recruitment side — you know a good candidate when you see one




- Prior sales or business development experience is a strong plus, on top of the recruitment/sourcing background above

WHO YOU ARE

- A natural at building trust and relationships — people remember you after one conversation
- Honest and dependable — your word means something, whether you're talking to a client or a candidate
- Resourceful — if you don't have the right contact or the right candidate, you find a way to get there
- Hungry to close, not just to “follow up” — you take ownership of getting to yes, whether that's a signed deal or a filled role
- Organized enough to juggle live deals and live searches at the same time without dropping either
- Resilient — rejection doesn't slow you down, it makes you sharper
- Based in or able to work from Gurugram/Delhi NCR, comfortable with local travel for client meetings

COMPENSATION

- Monthly stipend + strong performance-linked bonus — tied to collected revenue on the sales side and successful placements on the recruitment side
- Your earning potential is tied directly to what you actually bring in and deliver — the better you are, the more you make
- Real, fast-tracked path to a full-time BD/Recruitment role if you perform

WHY AXIORAPEOPLE?
- Direct, unfiltered access to real clients, real deals, and real hiring mandates — not shadowing, not just research
- Exposure to both sides of the business: winning clients and delivering for them — rare for an internship
- Mentorship from a team with decades of real operating experience — learn how business actually gets built, start to finish
- A genuine, numbers-backed story for your resume: real clients, real revenue, real placements
- High-trust, high-ownership setting for someone who wants to prove what they can do
