Spherion Staffing & Recruiting is hiring a Recruiting Intern to join our Madison, WI team this summer.
This isn't a "sit back and observe" internship. You'll be working alongside our recruiting team on real searches - helping identify candidates, talk through opportunities, and support the hiring process from start to finish with local companies across the Madison area.
You'll also be part of a small intern class joining a team that's actively growing. That means you'll learn alongside peers, get exposure to different parts of the business, and take on work that actually contributes to what we're building, not just shadowing from the sidelines.
If you're curious about recruiting as a career path, how hiring actually works inside companies, and how people make career decisions, this will give you a clear, hands-on look.
This is a hybrid position based out of our Madison office. Our team works onsite three days per week, with the flexibility to work remotely two days a week.
