Job Description

Brilliant is looking for a REMOTE Human Resources Intern, 15 hours a week to help support the agency’s growing, award-winning team for our Fall 2026 semester.

Who We Are:

We’re a fully remote performance team built on a simple promise: Work Hard. Play Hard. Laugh Hard.

We aren't for the faint of heart! We move fast, hold a ridiculously high bar for excellence, and thrive on driving real ROI for our clients. But we also believe that intense drive should come with great culture—which is why we offer unlimited PTO, Fabulous Fridays (doors close at 3pm), virtual happy hours, a monthly book club, and endless reasons to win together.

And the industry notices: We were recently named an Inc. Best Workplace 2026 and landed on the Inc. 5000 List of America's Fastest-Growing Private Companies for 2026!

 

What We Do:

Since 2008, Brilliant has been where bold ideas meet relentless execution. We're a performance marketing agency with deep expertise in family-focused brands, bringing together PR, Influencer, Social, Paid Media, Affiliate, Retail Support, Experiential, and AI Intelligence to create integrated, full-funnel campaigns that shatter targets and cut through the noise. 

This internship is for October - December, 2026.

Our Dream Team Member:

  • Curious, resourceful, and committed
  • A people-person who enjoys helping others and creating a positive employee experience
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented
  • Comfortable handling confidential information with professionalism and discretion
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Proactive and willing to ask questions, learn, and jump in
  • Interested in workplace culture, employee engagement, and HR best practices
  • Comfortable working independently in a fully remote environment

Potential Responsibilities Include:

Recruiting & Talent:

  • Assist with job postings and maintaining open positions
  • Help coordinate interviews and communicate with candidates
  • Support resume review and candidate tracking
  • Assist with onboarding new team members
  • Help develop and organize recruiting and onboarding materials

Employee Engagement & Culture:

  • Support employee engagement initiatives, virtual events, and team activities
  • Assist with company-wide communications and culture initiatives
  • Help gather and organize employee feedback through surveys and other HR tools
  • Research creative ways to improve the remote employee experience

HR & People Operations:

  • Assist with maintaining accurate employee records and HR documentation
  • Support benefits and employee communications
  • Help organize HR resources, policies, and internal materials
  • Research HR topics, trends, and best practices
  • Assist with special HR projects as they arise

Requirements for a successful candidate include:

  • You must be a rising sophomore, junior or senior. 
  • Ability to commit to at least 15 hours a week during office hours, 8–5 in your time zone
  • Professional demeanor and a drive to succeed
  • Eagerness to learn and willingness to ask questions
  • Resourceful attitude and keen attention to detail 

***Prior to applying for this position, please contact your College or University Career Center and verify that you are eligible to receive College Credits for an Internship although accepting credit hours is not necessary to accept an offer. If selected, Brilliant will reimburse you $250 each month for using your personal cell phone, computer, and home internet.***
