About Perfect Hire

Perfect Hire is a recruiting tech company on a mission to fix the hiring chaos that holds companies back.

We believe recruiting is sales - and we built the first Talent Management Platform that treats it that way. Our platform helps businesses hire faster, smarter, and more consistently by bringing rigor into the recruiting world and thoughtfully sprinkling in AI tools to create a streamlined, user friendly experience for recruiters and applicants alike. We’re redefining how growing companies scale their teams - and we’re doing it right here in Appalachia.

 

About the Role

We’re looking for a motivated Front-End Developer Intern who’s excited to learn and contribute to real-world projects. You’ll work closely with our product and engineering teams to build responsive, user-friendly interfaces for our web applications using React.

Responsibilities

  • Assist in developing and maintaining React-based front-end applications.
  • Implement UI components based on Figma/wireframes and design guidelines.
  • Collaborate with backend developers to integrate APIs.
  • Help identify and fix UI bugs and performance issues.
  • Participate in code reviews and team standups to learn best practices.

Requirements

  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • Basic understanding of JavaScript (ES6+), HTML, CSS, and modern front-end workflows.
  • Familiarity with React, or strong desire to learn it quickly.
  • Understanding of version control (Git/GitHub).
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Curiosity, teamwork, and willingness to learn new tools and frameworks.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with TypeScript, Redux, or Tailwind/Material UI.
  • Exposure to REST APIs or GraphQL.
  • Familiarity with testing (Jest, React Testing Library).

 

What You’ll Gain

  • Hands-on experience with a production React app.
  • Mentorship from experienced developers.
  • Exposure to agile workflows, Git branching, and code reviews.
  • Opportunity to contribute to real features used by customers.

 

Internship Notice (per DOL Fact Sheet #71)

This internship follows federal guidelines for lawful educational programs.

  • If paid, it meets all wage requirements under the FLSA.
  • If unpaid, it’s structured around your learning — not labor.
  • Every intern gains real training, mentorship, and clear scope — never busywork.

At Perfect Hire, we build systems that make work fairer. That starts with how we hire — and how we teach.

 

Equal Opportunity at Perfect Hire

At Perfect Hire, we hire humans — all kinds.

 

We believe great teams are built through difference, not sameness. Every person deserves a fair shot to do their best work and be seen for who they are, not just what’s on paper.

 

We’re an equal opportunity employer. That means we don’t discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.

 

What matters here is your impact, integrity, and hunger to build something better. If you’re qualified and you care, you’re welcome.
