Job Description
Summary: Planet is a company that designs, builds, and operates the largest constellation of imaging satellites in history, delivering data for various sectors. The Talent Acquisition Intern will focus on modernizing employer branding and enhancing candidate experience through content creation and collaboration with various teams.
Responsibilities:
- Audit Planet’s current employer brand presence across careers pages, job postings, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and other channels — identifying gaps, outdated content, and opportunities to better reflect who Planet is today
- Develop refreshed employer brand content including employee spotlight stories, team profiles, day-in-the-life features, and visual assets that give candidates an authentic view of the culture, work, and mission
- Support the development and publication of Planet’s AI policy for talent-facing channels — helping translate internal AI strategy into external messaging that positions Planet as a leader in responsible AI adoption
- Create content that highlights Planet’s unique differentiators as an employer — including the mission-driven PBC model, the intersection of hardware and software, the Berlin manufacturing expansion, and the opportunity to work on technology that monitors the entire planet
- Research employer branding best practices across comparable technology, aerospace, and mission-driven companies — identifying what top talent responds to and what channels drive the highest-quality candidate engagement
- Partner with talent partners to understand which messages and content formats resonate most with candidates at different stages of the funnel — from awareness to application to offer acceptance
- Develop a content calendar and publishing plan that the Talent Acquisition team can sustain beyond the internship, creating a repeatable framework rather than one-time assets
- Contribute to social media content for recruiting channels, including LinkedIn posts, job fair materials, and campus recruiting collateral
Required Qualifications:
- Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Marketing, Communications, Human Resources, Business, or a related field
- Solid writing and content creation skills — you can craft compelling, authentic copy that speaks to a professional audience without sounding like corporate boilerplate
- An eye for visual storytelling — you are comfortable working with design tools, photo/video content, or collaborating with designers to bring stories to life
- Interest in employer branding, talent marketing, or recruiting — you understand that how a company presents itself to candidates directly affects who applies and who accepts
- Research skills to benchmark competitor employer brands, analyze what top companies are doing, and translate those insights into actionable recommendations
- Comfort working across multiple stakeholders — you will interact with recruiters, marketing, communications, and People Team leadership throughout this project
- Experience with content creation and publishing tools such as Canva, Google Workspace, LinkedIn, and social media platforms
Preferred Qualifications:
- Previous internship or project experience in employer branding, recruitment marketing, content marketing, or corporate communications
- A portfolio or samples of written content, social media campaigns, or visual storytelling work — even from academic or personal projects
- Interest in or knowledge of AI, aerospace, climate technology, or earth observation — you can speak authentically about why Planet's mission matters
- Experience with video production or editing — even at a basic level — for creating employee spotlight or culture content
- Familiarity with LinkedIn Talent Insights, Glassdoor employer tools, or careers page analytics platforms
