Putri Rosalinda on LinkedIn: Shopee Express – Rider Team Lead (Ambarawa) at Shopee

My second internship journey

In May 2021, I got an internship opportunity as a recruiter at Hacktiv8 Indonesia. I was very happy when I got the offer because I would learn end-to-end recruitment for programming positions in finding teachers. From sourcing CV, interviewing candidates, negotiating fee and making a contract letter as well.

When the onboarding process began, I was given the task of reading Carol S. Dweck’s book about growth mindset for 1 month and then asked to present the key takeaways. This is interesting because it made me understood the importance of applying a growth mindset in everyday life. I also realized that reading a book can add to my point of view.

For approximately 2 months, I processed hiring for front-end positions web development basics, Intro to Programming, React & React Native, Introduction to Python for Data Science, and others. I am so happy to be able to learn new things related to programming. At first, I was confused by the position which was quite new to me but the leader and the whole team helped me understand the tasks well.

When processing the candidates, a lot of challenges came but I managed to use it as motivation to achieve the targets. One of the challenges was looking for candidates who have skills and suitable with the requirements. I successfully overcome that challenge by achieving more than the target and faster than the requested time.

I am very grateful to Ms. Rina Namira Dalimunthe and all of my team who have taught me during my internship at Hacktiv8 Indonesia. For me, in learning new things, communication with the team and the leader is the key to be able to work well.
