Build The Skills That Actually Matter.

At Weekday AI, you won't be doing an internship where you spend six months watching someone else work.

As a Business Development Associate Intern, you'll be speaking to real companies, understanding their hiring challenges, introducing them to our product, and learning what it takes to turn a conversation into a business relationship.

You'll get a front-row seat to how a Y Combinator-backed startup thinks about customers, sales, growth, and revenue.

And you doesn't need to come in knowing sales.

If you're a strong communicator, curious, ambitious, and willing to learn, we'll teach you the rest.

Our platform helps companies discover high-quality, peer-recommended candidates using intelligent sourcing, automated outreach, and instant reference checks.

We're a lean, fast-moving startup where people get to take ownership early and see the impact of their work.

What You'll Do

• Speak with prospective customers and understand their hiring needs.
• Introduce companies to Weekday and explain how our product can help them.
• Identify and engage with potential customers.
• Build relationships with prospects and clients.
• Work with internal teams to create a smooth customer experience.
• Track your work and understand what drives successful business development.

What You’ll Learn

This role is designed to help you build skills that compound throughout your career:

Communication - Learn to speak with different types of people and communicate with clarity and confidence.

Business thinking - Understand how companies identify problems, evaluate solutions, and make buying decisions.

Sales & persuasion - Learn how to understand customer needs and communicate the value of a solution.

Relationship building - Learn how to build professional relationships that go beyond a single conversation.

Ownership - Work on real business problems where your effort and results are visible.

These skills can become a strong foundation for careers in sales, business development, growth, account management, operations, and entrepreneurship.

Who We're Looking For

• Communicates clearly and confidently.
• Enjoys talking to people.
• Is curious and learns quickly.
• Takes initiative and follows through.
• Is comfortable working independently.
• Wants to understand how businesses actually work.
• Is currently pursuing or has recently completed a Bachelor's degree.

Prior Sales Experience Is a Bonus, Not a Requirement.

Real responsibility. You'll contribute to work that directly supports the company's growth.

Real learning. You'll learn by doing, not through endless training sessions.

Real opportunity. Strong performance can lead to a full-time role with CTC of up to ₹6 LPA.
