  • Assist in writing and organizing proposal content, tailored to client needs and SmartRecruiters’ values

  • Gain insight into collaboration across departments, including Sales, Product, Legal, and Finance

  • Help maintain a library of proposal content and frequently asked questions for future use

What You’ll Learn and Work On

  • Support the development of internal resources and best practices for the RFX team

  • Learn to use SmartRecruiters and other internal tools to manage tasks and updates

  • Support the coordination of proposal responses to help SmartRecruiters win new business

  • Draft and edit proposal materials in French and English to showcase our solutions

  • Collaborate with teams across Sales, Product, Legal, and Marketing, gaining exposure to different parts of the business

  • Maintain and improve our library of content and templates

By the end of your internship, you’ll have practical experience in communication, teamwork, and project management.
