HR Intern (Remote)

What a typical week may include

The sequence depends on priorities and your learning progress; scope and ownership are agreed together.

• Review the assigned candidate queue and confirm owners and next steps
• Coordinate interviews and prepare approved communication
• Maintain scorecards, follow-up dates and onboarding checklists
• Share a short candidate-experience or process-quality update

Tools and working systems

We list only systems genuinely used in this workstream. Access is role-based and granted after onboarding.

Your role at GamingCenter

People & Culture is responsible for making every interaction with GamingCenter clear, respectful and consistent. As an HR Intern, you will support the operating system behind that experience: accurate candidate records, timely communication, structured interviews and practical onboarding preparation.

You will work with approved criteria and documented workflows rather than make independent hiring decisions. The role suits someone who enjoys bringing order to moving parts, protects confidential information and can turn recurring coordination into a process the whole team can follow.

You will receive a defined learning scope, an accountable supervisor and regular feedback. We will confirm the lawful internship route, duration, working country and compensation in writing before the placement begins.

How you will contribute

• Research potential candidates through LinkedIn and other approved recruitment channels without scraping or unapproved bulk collection
• Review assigned applications against the published role requirements and prepare structured initial-review notes
• Coordinate interviews across time zones and maintain clear, professional candidate communication using approved templates
• Maintain accurate candidate statuses, owners, follow-up dates, recruitment trackers and HR documentation within assigned access
• Support onboarding preparation for selected interns and team members through reviewed checklists and document coordination
• Assist with creating, reviewing and improving clear, inclusive and accurate job descriptions
• Contribute to approved employer-branding and talent-attraction initiatives
• Identify recurring candidate-experience or workflow friction and discuss improvements with the responsible supervisor
• Complete a final learning review and an anonymised HR-operations case study where confidentiality permits

What will help you succeed

• Current or recently completed studies in Human Resources, Business Administration, Psychology, Management or a related field
• For a 6-month unpaid route: current enrolment and written proof that the internship is mandatory under the applicable school or university rules
• For any other unpaid route: documented legal eligibility at the actual remote work location; otherwise applicable minimum compensation is paid
• Strong interest in talent acquisition, recruitment, candidate experience and responsible HR operations
• Excellent organisation, administrative discipline and attention to detail
• Clear professional written and verbal English; German or another language is an advantage
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment while escalating uncertainty promptly
• Discretion and sound judgement when handling confidential candidate information
• Availability for approximately 20 hours per week with agreed overlap with Berlin time
• Ability to lawfully participate in a remote internship from the country where the work will be performed

Helpful experience

• Student-project, volunteer or previous internship experience in recruiting, administration, communications or people operations
• Familiarity with LinkedIn, applicant tracking concepts, spreadsheets and collaborative documentation tools
• Interest in startups, technology, gaming or international digital platforms
• Proactive problem-solving, time management and a constructive learning mindset

What you will learn and gain

• Hands-on, supervised experience across talent acquisition, candidate coordination and HR operations
• Exposure to international remote recruitment and early-stage process design
• A documented learning plan with regular mentorship and actionable feedback from the responsible supervisor
• Practice in professional candidate communication, structured review, interview coordination and employer branding
• Training on privacy, least-privilege access, fair selection and responsible recruitment documentation
• An internship completion certificate after successful completion of the agreed programme
• A LinkedIn recommendation may be provided at the supervisor’s discretion based on documented performance and conduct
• Strong performance may lead to consideration for a separate paid opportunity when company requirements, budget and headcount allow; no offer is guaranteed
