YOUR JOB

UX Research internships at Indeed last 12 weeks, during which time you will work with a mentor on any one of several possible product teams learning to translate what you’ve learned in school to real-world research situations intended to deliver measurable success. We are looking for a UX Research Intern who will collaborate with UX researchers to answer stakeholder questions through qualitative and quantitative research. If you are an impeccable organizer and have a knack for building relationships, then this is a role for you. You will recruit and schedule UX research sessions with employers and jobseekers, and you’ll have a hand in defining our research systems and processes. You will help Indeed verify that our products are easy to use, useful, and efficient.

So what would you be doing? You'd be working with other members of the UX team supporting our Product and Engineering teams, validating new ideas and helping teams answer their questions through qualitative research. We are a small group because we are incredibly picky with who we hire and we don’t spend a lot of time working on things that don’t matter.

Some of the ways you may support the team include:

• Validate new designs through ad-hoc user feedback sessions with job seekers

• Plan and carry out interviews and surveys to inform future product work

• Relationship building with key stakeholders

• Collaborate with research coordinators, researchers, and designers to identify the right types of participants needed for UX research projects

• Collaborate with the team to develop processes and practices to ensure efficiency and effectiveness

Our hope is that you will also have fun collaborating a small to medium scope project and build a few friendships along the way. We also want you to experience our corporate culture, which is focused on empowering individuals to accomplish great things. We look for interns who love intellectual challenges, are eager to learn, value data and research in the design process and are strong advocates for users at every stage of their engagement with Indeed. We believe in autonomy, responsibility, and fast iteration.
