Founder's Office Intern (Unpaid)

Job Title: Founder's Office Intern (Remote) | The Shadow CEO Program

Location: Remote (India)

Type: Internship (3 Months + 3 Months Extension)

Stipend: Unpaid (Performance-based perks & High-Value Mentorship)

This is not a normal internship.

If you are looking for a 9-to-5 where you are told exactly what to do every hour, do not apply. If you are looking for easy pocket money, do not apply.

This is a Founder's Office role at Focus Realm. You will work directly with the Founder (Sehej Sharma) as a Shadow CEO.

The Mission (What You Will Do)

Since this is a remote role, your output is your currency. You will handle three core pillars:

1. Strategic Operations (The Chief of Staff Work):

• Meeting Shadowing: Sit in on high-stakes Zoom calls with CXOs and Directors. Take minutes, decode the negotiation psychology, and draft follow-up emails.
• Workflow Automation: You will not do manual data entry twice. You will use AI (ChatGPT/Perplexity), Zapier, and Notion to build systems that automate the boring stuff.
• Inbox & Calendar Command: You will act as the gatekeeper, prioritizing the Founder's time and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

2. Growth & Research (The Builder Work):

• Market Intelligence: Deep dive into Tier-3 Education markets or Hospitality trends to find our next 10 clients.
• Pitch Deck Architecture: Assist in crafting high-impact presentations for investors and partners.
• LinkedIn Brand Building: Help draft content, engage with partners, and manage the company's digital footprint.

3. Execution (The Hustle):

• Running cold outreach campaigns.
• Coordinating with tech teams to ensure product delivery timelines are met.
