Job description

This is a internal hiring not for our clients

Remote | 6-Month Paid Internship | ₹15,000–₹20,000/month

₹15,000 fixed + up to ₹5,000 performance incentives
10 AM – 7 PM | 6 days/week
Potential full-time conversion: up to ₹6 LPA

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 don’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.

About Weekday AI

Weekday AI is building a better way for companies to hire engineering talent.

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

You’ll work closely with our Business Development team to:

• 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

You don’t need a perfect resume or previous sales experience.

We’re looking for someone who:

• 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.

What matters most is your communication, curiosity, attitude, and willingness to learn.

Why Weekday?

Real customers. You’ll interact with actual businesses.

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.
