• Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree, or equivalent experience, with an interest in people operations, recruiting, HR, or business operations.
• Strong organizational skills and excellent attention to detail.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to stay organized across multiple tasks, deadlines, calendars, and stakeholders.
