Are you interested in recruitment, HR, and working with people?

As a Recruitment intern at TOPdesk, you will learn to know the recruitment profession from the inside out. You will help with attracting, selecting, and onboarding new colleagues, working together with recruiters, candidates, and hiring managers. This way, you will gain a broad view of recruitment, employer branding, and process improvement.

No two days are the same. One day you might be screening candidates or scheduling interviews, the next day you might be working on onboarding, thinking along about improvements to our processes, or representing TOPdesk at a career fair. From the very beginning, you will receive responsibility and the space to contribute your own ideas.

You will participate in the full recruitment process and, step by step, take on more and more tasks independently:

• Recruitment: You will search for and approach potential candidates, screen candidates for junior positions, schedule interviews, and contribute ideas regarding the selection of new colleagues.
• Candidate contact: You will maintain contact with candidates, recruiters, and hiring managers and ensure a smooth application process.
• Onboarding and administration: You will prepare contracts, support the onboarding of new colleagues, and keep recruitment documentation and templates up to date.
• Events and employer branding: You will help organize career fairs and student events and represent TOPdesk as an employer to students, graduates, and other potential candidates.
• Process improvement: You will investigate how we can make our recruitment and onboarding processes more efficient and help improve job vacancies, communication, and internal documentation.

In the first few weeks, you will get to know TOPdesk, our recruitment processes, and the tools we use. You will be guided by experienced recruiters, but you will also receive the freedom to work independently on your own tasks and your own internship assignment or project. Together, we will discuss your learning goals and align the internship as much as possible with what your studies require of you.

• You will gain broad practical experience in recruitment, HR, onboarding, and employer branding.
• From day one, you will receive responsibility and gradually grow toward working independently.
• You will combine administrative tasks with personal contact and the organization of events.
• You will get space for initiative and for improving processes.
• You will work in a dedicated team where collaboration and learning are central.

• You are following a HBO or WO degree, preferably in HRM, psychology, communication, business administration, or a related field, and are looking for an internship.
• You have an interest in recruitment, HR, and working with people.

• You can organize well and coordinate multiple tasks at once.
