Asendia AI is an AI-powered recruiting platform that helps staffing firms find, engage, and place candidates more efficiently. We’re one of the fastest-growing startups in our YC batch and recently raised an oversubscribed seed round backed by leading investors.
We’re growing quickly and looking for a **Staffing Intern** to work closely with our founders and help us hire exceptional people across engineering, sales, marketing, and other roles.
