• Prepare and share candidate profiles with recruiters and hiring managers.
• Maintain accurate placement data, reports, and dashboards for internal stakeholders.
• Support learners with interview logistics, communication, and timely follow-ups.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure candidates are well-prepared and matched to the right opportunities.

What We’re Looking For

• Excellent coordination and organizational skills with strong attention to detail.
• Strong communication and relationship-management abilities.
• Strong working with data, trackers, spreadsheets, and reporting tools.
• A proactive, ownership-driven attitude with an eagerness to learn and grow.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.
• Bachelor’s degree in any discipline; 0–3 years of relevant experience in coordination, operations, HR, or placements.

Good to Have

• Prior experience in a placement, campus recruitment, or talent-operations environment.
• Familiarity with CRM, ATS, or spreadsheet-based tracking tools.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation of 3.6–5 LPA with performance-based incentives.
• The opportunity to be part of the core placement engine at a fast-growing ed-tech company.
• A collaborative, high-ownership culture with strong learning and growth potential.
