Job Description

At Reapra, we are pioneering a very different way of building ventures. We believe in taking our time with potential founders in developing their vision of solving long-term systemic problems and see their startups today as being the first step to creating a future industry for the betterment of future generations. The people come and their commitments to these problems come first and their short-term ideas are just icing on the cake. Because of this approach, the way we source potential founders - initially through deep self-discovery - and operate internally is unlike most companies or VC firms.

We encourage you to apply to Reapra\xe2\x80\x99s very unique internship program if you are: (1) curious about participating in a fun and engaging self-discovery process to give some direction in your career path, (2) enthusiastic about the startup space, and (3) interested in co-creating completely new systems of sourcing and founder development.

This position might not be for you if you are prioritizing an internship opportunity that teaches technical skills or responsibilities in standard recruitment, VC deal sourcing, marketing or PR, or other corporate or VC responsibilities. We are creating something completely new in every process and project we start!

Your internship will start off with a 2-week workshop called Foundation Design where you will use a model of self-understanding as a personal blueprint to enhance your learning and work throughout the project tasks and think about your own career options in the future. After completion of Foundation Design, you will dive right into a very dynamic, fast-changing set of project-related tasks while building new types of Venture communities along the way.

Your role will look to challenge the norms of founder sourcing and employee recruitment. We\'re talking about creative approaches that go beyond the usual platforms for investment sourcing and HR recruitment. As an intern, you\'ll collaborate on crafting new marketing, PR, and community building methods to connect with potential founders and employees. Think unstructured social engagement, pioneering events, and new communication channels. Your contributions might also extend to content and marketing activities that gradually educate the market on our novel venture building approach and ultimately help responding candidates progress to being considered by our Investment Committee. Ultimately, you will be one of the first builders of a new ecosystem of founders who look to solve long-term problems. Unlike traditional companies or other VC firms, this role will not be confined to standard HR recruiting techniques or investment analysis.

Join us to embark on a journey where you will help us redefine the art of sourcing and venture creation!

• Co-develop, execute and update new systems to increase quality of founder sourcing in and around Malaysia, and possibly other markets
