Recently posted an internship opportunity for our salon brand. I clearly mentioned:
- What the work is
- What skills are needed
- What the pay is
- What the expectations are

Did it properly so nobody wastes their time or mine.

What happened next?
People read the full post, sent DMs saying “interested”, “I want this”, “please check DM” and then disappeared completely.

No reply.
No follow up.
No basic professionalism.

I genuinely want to understand this behavior.

If you are not interested after reading the details, that’s completely fine. But why DM first and then vanish when the conversation actually starts?

As a founder hiring interns, this is becoming more common than expected. People want opportunities, but very few want to take the next step seriously.

Curious if other founders/recruiters here are facing the same issue with internship hiring.

We are a fast-growing salon franchise based out of Hyderabad, actively expanding across prime locations. We already have investors ready to fund new outlets , the only missing piece is the right commercial space.

Role Overview:
We are looking for a highly driven intern who can help us identify and secure commercial rental spaces for new salon outlets.

Key Responsibilities:
Identify high potential commercial shops/retail spaces in target areas

Connect with property owners, brokers, and agents
Source “To-Let” properties and evaluate suitability for salon setup

Negotiate rental terms and assist in closing deals
Maintain a pipeline of available properties and daily updates

What We’re Looking For:
Strong communication and negotiation skills
Street-smart, proactive approach (this is a field heavy role)
Ability to network with brokers and local property owners
Hustler mindset , someone who can get things done

What You Get:
Direct exposure to business expansion and real estate deals

Opportunity to work closely with founders
Performance based incentives on successful closures

If you can find the right locations, you will directly impact business growth.

DM if interested.
