Internships in HR in Australia

Here are a few examples of roles that our HR interns have taken on before:

• Employment Specialist

  An employment specialist effectively selects the right candidate to fill a vacant position by having an in-depth understanding of the business, its requirements, and its culture. Skilled employment specialists may find work within the human resources team of a specific company, or work for an external employment agency. Interns may be required to participate in interviews and/or assess applications.

• Training and Development Manager

  Responsible for improving the productivity of employees, focusing on the internal aspects of a company, often achieved through the creation and implementation of programs that maintain or upgrade the skills of employees. Interns may be required to contribute to such initiatives and also conduct periodic evaluations of various teams’ skill sets.

• Global Human Resources Specialist

  While some companies prefer to recruit from local candidates, a global human resources specialist is necessary for organizations seeking to recruit from the global talent pool. Interns in this role will gain an understanding of different cultures and methods of effective communication, as well as knowledge of relevant immigration, tax, and other legal legislation.

• Payroll Specialist

  Interns with an interest in data capturing and accounting, can shadow a payroll specialist, and may be tasked with responsibilities such as executing accurate and timely payroll transactions, ensuring all payroll information, such as leave balances, are updated, as well as providing relevant taxation documents for employees.
