Who can apply for a summer internship?

Summer internships usually target penultimate-year students, though some firms accept other years. They run for roughly eight to ten weeks and often lead to a full-time offer.

When do summer internship applications open?

Many open in late summer or early autumn the year before. Because places convert into full-time offers, firms tend to fill them quickly, so early applications help.
