ABOUT THE ROLE
This isn't your typical HR internship. It's an opportunity to learn how to run a recruitment operation like a business.
As we expand our Recruitment & Workforce Solutions business, we're looking for a driven, resourceful, and commercially minded intern to support a
large-scale recruitment project
for one of Vietnam's leading consumer finance companies with the requirements:
Qualified agents, on time:
the right volume, in the right places, when the sales teams need them.
Transparent numbers:
a clear view of the funnel every day, not a surprise at month-end.
Hires that stick:
candidates who pass probation and perform, not just fill seats.
You'll work at the intersection of
Talent Acquisition, Project Management, Data Analytics, and Commercial Operations
, gaining hands-on experience managing a high-volume recruitment pipeline, coordinating stakeholders, and delivering measurable hiring outcomes.
This isn't a coordinator role. You own the plan, the dashboard and the result: coordinating a small pod of recruiting and screening interns, working directly with client stakeholders, and being accountable for
hires delivered, not activities completed
.
SCOPE OF WORK
A. Project Leadership & Stakeholder Management
Own the project plan end to end: milestones, weekly sprint goals, RACI, risk and issue log, and a daily rhythm (stand-up, mid-day check, end-of-day wrap).
Be the day-to-day contact for the client's Talent Acquisition and sales stakeholders: align on requirements, hiring criteria, SLAs and feedback loops. Run the weekly status review with a one-page update (progress vs target, risks, asks).
Lead the hiring pod: set daily targets by channel and region, brief and coach sourcers, screeners and interviewers, QA their work, and keep energy high through peak weeks.
Raise risks early, always with options. If the funnel is behind, show where it leaks and what you will do about it.
Manage scope and expectations: "yes, and here is the trade-off" rather than "yes" to everything.
B. Hiring Operations & Dashboard
Design, build and run the
Hiring Operations dashboard
(Google Sheets / Looker Studio or equivalent): a live funnel from sourced, applied, screened, interviewed, offered and onboarded to 30-day retained, cut by channel, region, recruiter and agent type.
Keep one source of truth: a candidate tracker with clean data standards, status definitions, duplicate checks and an audit trail. Publish the daily report.
Track and improve the numbers that matter: stage conversion, interview show-up rate, time-to-hire, cost per hire, offer acceptance, drop-off reasons and early attrition.
Automate the repetitive: templates, scheduling, reminders and bulk messaging (Zalo / SMS / email). Where the client allows, pilot Edtronaut's own Hiring Mode, AI CV Scoring and AI Interview to screen at scale.
Run a weekly
funnel clinic
: find the biggest leak, test one fix, measure the result.
C. Sourcing, Screening & Candidate Management
Build and optimize the channel mix for mass-market sales talent (job boards, Facebook / Zalo groups, universities and vocational schools, referrals, walk-in and mass-interview days). Double down on the channels with the best cost per qualified hire.
Turn the client's requirements into a structured screening kit: knock-out criteria, phone-screen script, interview guide and scorecard, plus calibration sessions so the whole pod scores consistently.
Run or oversee first-round screening calls and interviews. Manage scheduling and follow-ups so no good candidate goes cold.
Deliver a fast, respectful, honest candidate experience: response SLAs, reminders, no-show recovery, and clear expectations about the role and earnings.
Protect candidate data and fairness: obtain consent, keep data confidential in line with Vietnam's personal data protection rules, and apply the same criteria to everyone.
D. Commercial Ownership & Results
Own the target: hires delivered, quality of hire (probation pass / 30-day retention) and cost, not just activity.
Think like a business owner: unit economics per hire, a pace-to-target forecast, and where the next hour and the next dong should go.
Earn your performance incentive: milestones and payout rules are agreed upfront and tracked transparently on the dashboard.
Capture the playbook: turn what works into a repeatable mass-hiring playbook (templates, benchmarks, channel learnings) that Edtronaut can reuse for other high-volume hiring clients.
E. Others
Participate in other assignments and projects aligned with the founding team's objectives to drive client and business growth.
