Before you post: what actually matters for this role

SEO results lag, so under four months you will see effort but not outcomes — budget for a longer term or judge on process quality instead. Candidates who own any ranking site, however small, are dramatically ahead of those with only coursework.

In Thane specifically, budget ₹8,500–₹26,500 per month for a seo intern — close to the national average, with moderate local competition for candidates.

Three questions that separate seo intern candidates

These are written so an HR generalist can ask them without domain expertise. You do not need to evaluate the technical answer — listen for whether the candidate reasons from something they actually did, or from something they read.

  1. 1

    Show me a page you got to rank. What did you change, and when did it move?

  2. 2

    A page has impressions but almost no clicks. What do you do?

  3. 3

    How would you decide which 10 pages to fix first on a 500-page site?
