Google Ads & Performance Marketing Internship

3, 6, 9 or 12 months ₹3,000–₹5,000/month → ₹10,000–₹15,000/month New Delhi / Hybrid 3 seats per intake

Hands on real ad spend. The one discipline where the number at the end of the month is unambiguously yours — and the fastest route to being hirable, because every agency in the country is short of media buyers.

Apply for this internship

There is no fee of any kind. No registration charge, no training fee, no deposit. We pay you a stipend from your first month.

What you'll learn

  • Google Ads end to end: Search, Performance Max, Demand Gen — structure, bidding, negatives, scripts
  • Meta Ads: campaign objectives, audience logic, creative testing, the iOS attribution mess and how to live with it
  • Conversion tracking that survives audit — GTM, enhanced conversions, offline conversion import
  • The arithmetic that matters: CPL, CAC, ROAS, LTV, and when each one is lying to you
  • Landing-page and offer testing, because the ad account is rarely the real bottleneck

What you'll actually work on

  • Build campaign structures in real accounts under a media buyer's review
  • Run daily and weekly optimisation passes — search terms, negatives, bids, budget pacing
  • Write and test ad copy variants, and read the results honestly
  • Produce the monthly performance report and explain what changed and why
  • Own a live campaign's budget from month 7

Tools you'll use daily

What we're looking for

  • Genuine comfort with numbers — you will be making budget decisions
  • The temperament to stop a losing test early instead of defending it
  • Spreadsheet fluency: pivot tables, lookups, basic modelling
  • No prior ads experience needed, but tell us if you have run anything, even your own

What you leave with

  • Live campaigns you structured, with the spend and return attached
  • A documented test log — hypothesis, variant, result, decision
  • Google Ads certifications, which we pay for

The stipend steps up to 15,000 at month 7. This track finishes before then — extend to 9 or 12 months to reach it, which you can decide at any point during the internship rather than at the start.

  1. 1

    Learn

    Months 1–3₹3,000–₹5,000/month learning-phase stipend

    Structured curriculum with a named mentor, plus shadowing on live accounts. You work in a sandbox — real tools, real data, no client risk. This stage is teaching, and we run it like teaching: a syllabus, weekly 1:1s, and work that gets marked.

    To move up: Pass the foundation assessment and ship one mock deliverable your mentor signs off.

  2. 2

    Assist

    Months 4–6₹3,000–₹5,000/month learning-phase stipend

    You start producing real client deliverables — drafts, builds, audits, creatives — every one reviewed and signed off by the specialist who owns the account. Your name goes on the work internally from here.

    To move up: Three shipped client deliverables and a positive mentor review.

  3. Own

    Months 7–9₹10,000–₹15,000/month — the stipend steps up hereNot in the 6-month track

    You own a channel on a real account — the keyword set, the ad group, the content calendar, the build. Decisions are yours to make and defend. This is where you stop being an intern in practice.

    To move up: Deliver a client-facing report solo, and hold the number you own for a full month.

  4. Lead

    Months 10–12₹10,000–₹15,000/monthNot in the 6-month track

    You run a small account end to end and mentor the intern who started after you. We start having the conversation about a full-time offer somewhere in month 10.

    To move up: A portfolio of 10–12 documented campaigns with real numbers attached.

Intakes are rolling rather than annual — we take a small number of interns per discipline whenever a seat opens, which means there is no deadline to miss and no reason to wait for a cohort date. Apply and we'll tell you honestly when the next seat is.

Performance Marketing internship — questions

The answers people ask for.

Can't find your question? Reach out at hello@globalinfoedge.com.

Under supervision from month 4, and with your own campaign budget from month 7. Every change is reviewed before it goes live until you have earned the Own stage. An internship where you never touch the account teaches you nothing an employer will pay for.

How to share your resume or portfolio link

Google Drive (PDF or Doc)

  1. Open drive.google.com and upload your resume — PDF is safest, since it keeps your formatting.
  2. Right-click the file → Share.
  3. Under “General access”, change “Restricted” to “Anyone with the link”.
  4. Keep the role as Viewer — we only need to read it.
  5. Click “Copy link”, then paste it in the field above.

Test it in a private/incognito window. If it asks you to request access, it is still restricted.

Canva (resume or portfolio design)

  1. Open your design in Canva and click Share (top right).
  2. Choose “Public view link” → “Copy link” to share the live design,
  3. …or Share → Download → PDF Standard, then upload that PDF to Google Drive and share it as above.
  4. If you see “Only you can access”, switch it to “Anyone with the link” → “Can view”.
  5. Paste the copied link in the field above.

A Canva edit link (ending in /edit) will not open for us — always use the view or public link.

No resume ready? Leave it blank and link your work above — we care more about what you've shipped than the document.

A few quick questions — all optional

Answer what you like. It helps us skip the obvious questions on the first call, and it moves a thoughtful application up the pile.

We read every one of these. It is the field that most often decides the shortlist.

We reply within a few business days.
