Role: Junior HR Intern Location: On-site, R S Puram, Coimbatore Duration: 6 months, full-time

What you will own

You will run hiring and people operations for a growing firm:

- Write and post job descriptions on LinkedIn, Naukri, Internshala and college placement cells

- Schedule interviews, coordinate with partners, and keep every candidate informed
- Maintain the hiring tracker and employee records
- Prepare offer letters, appointment letters and onboarding checklists
- Draft Curd Rice's first HR policies (leave, attendance, onboarding) for partner approval
- Support client projects that need people work: org charts, JDs, hiring plans

What is hard about this role There is no HR department here. You will be the first person doing this full-time, so you will build processes, not follow them.



Partners are busy; you will need to chase decisions politely and persistently.
