BufferSprings: Eradicating Veteran Underemployment, One Smart Company at a Time Hiring military talent isn’t charity...it’s smart business. Veterans and military spouses bring unmatched leadership, adaptability, and mission-driven focus to any organization. But here’s the hard truth: most companies are doing it wrong. Checking boxes, waving flags, and calling it a day doesn’t cut it. At BufferSprings, we build military-effective hiring programs that actually work. We partner with forward-thinking employers to design strategies that go beyond compliance and token gestures. Our focus? Retention, community engagement, and long-term impact. If you’re a federal contractor navigating VEVRAA & Section 503 compliance requirements, we’ll help you not just meet the standard... we’ll help you set it. What We Do: - Design and implement military hiring programs built for sustainability and retention - Develop SkillBridge opportunities to bridge the gap between active duty and civilian careers - Guide companies in becoming truly veteran-inclusive, not just “friendly” for show - Offer strategic assessments to improve hiring, engagement, and retention at every level Why BufferSprings? We’re not consultants who read a few articles on veteran hiring. We’ve lived it. As a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business (SDVOB), our team knows firsthand the value veterans and military spouses bring to the table. Every member of our crew has served or supported those who have, and we bring that mission-first mentality to every project. The Bottom Line: If you’re serious about building a military talent pipeline that drives real results, we’re ready to help you lead the way. No fluff, no flags for optics. Just real solutions that move your company forward and build better futures for veterans, military spouses, and your business. Ready to stop checking boxes and start making an impact?

Human Resources Project Management Internship (DoD SkillBridge Opportunity)

Remote (Work from home) | 3 to 6 Months | Military Transition Internship

Step Into the Mission. Help Employers Get Military Hiring Right.

At BufferSprings, we partner with the nation's most committed employers to build military-effective programs that create real results. We do not wave flags or run job fairs that go nowhere. We train companies to do this the right way. And we are looking for transitioning service members who want to help lead that charge.

As a Human Resources Project Management Intern, you will play a key role in developing, supporting, and delivering HR strategies and training programs that directly impact veteran and military spouse hiring across our national partner network.

This is your chance to get real-world experience in employer engagement, workforce development, program execution, and data-driven strategy. You will be working directly with internal teams and external partners to solve real problems that matter to the military-connected community.

The Opportunity

This internship is built for high-performing service members with backgrounds in recruiting, operations, training, logistics, or admin. If you’ve ever managed a team, built a timeline, trained others, or aligned units to meet a mission objective, you already have the foundation. We’ll help you build the civilian version.

What You Will Do:

Collaborate with Employers on Strategy and Design

  • Partner with HR teams to identify workforce challenges and build smart, scalable solutions

  • Help develop veteran hiring and retention strategies that align with business goals

  • Support the creation and delivery of employer training workshops and toolkits

Support Program Planning and Execution
  • Work with program managers to coordinate timelines, track milestones, and execute deliverables

  • Keep internal and client teams aligned through clear updates, briefings, and documentation

Lead Communication Across Teams

  • Ensure communication is proactive, professional, and focused on outcomes

Analyze Data and Drive Performance
  • Review survey results and feedback from employers, candidates, and program participants

  • Identify trends, track engagement, and make recommendations for improvement

  • Assist in reporting that showcases program value and ROI to leadership

Leverage CRM and Workflow Tools
  • Use our CRM to manage client interactions, project tasks, and documentation

  • Ensure accurate records and help streamline internal and partner workflows

Operate with Ownership
  • Take initiative, solve problems, and manage your responsibilities with confidence

  • Bring forward ideas, observations, and improvements to help strengthen delivery and impact
