You are responsible for ensuring you are duly authorized to share your organization's logo with third parties.

SpiderSkill reserves the right to publish internship listings on its social media handles, third-party job board platforms (such as LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.), and other digital or print media channels in order to increase the visibility of listings.

The minimum stipend for an in-office internship is ₹2,000/month. The minimum stipend for a work-from-home internship is ₹1,000/month.

2.3 What SpiderSkill Does NOT Allow Founders to Post

SpiderSkill strictly prohibits the following types of listings. Violations will result in immediate removal of the listing and/or account suspension:

• Unpaid internships, unless the posting organization is a registered NGO/NPO or a government agency.
• Training programs or any arrangement where applicants are expected to pay a security deposit, admission fee, or any other charges.

• Listings from individuals or organizations promoting explicit religious content, a specific religious personality, or a sect.
• Businesses dealing in gambling, pornography, or other prohibited, illegal, or age-inappropriate activities.

2.4 Hiring Terms

There must be no material negative difference between the internship details advertised on SpiderSkill and the details communicated to applicants at any stage (pre-interview, offer letter, etc.). For example, offering a lower stipend than advertised is a material negative difference and will invite suitable action.

Any assignment or task given to applicants to assess their suitability must be fair, relevant to the internship role, and reasonable in scope. It is strictly prohibited to use assessments to extract free work, generate app downloads, or generate social-media engagement.

All communications with applicants, whether through SpiderSkill Chat or any other channel, must be professional. Obscene, offensive, or harassing content is strictly prohibited.

Once you hire an applicant, you must provide them with a written offer letter clearly detailing the role and responsibilities, remuneration and payment mechanism, duration and work type, and complete address and contact details of your organization. You must pay the promised remuneration to selected applicants in a timely manner.

You must respond within 72 working hours to any applicant complaint regarding your listing that SpiderSkill brings to your notice. Failure to respond may result in temporary or permanent suspension of your account.

Posting a listing on SpiderSkill does not guarantee that you will find a suitable hire. SpiderSkill recommends that founders terminate internships within 15 days if a selected candidate's performance is clearly unsatisfactory.

2.5 Internship Post Expiry and Renewal

• All internship listings posted on SpiderSkill are active for 30 days from the date of posting.

2.7 Applicant Data Usage

You may use the applicant data you receive through SpiderSkill solely for the purpose of evaluating and hiring candidates for the specific internship listing they applied to.
