Internshala CampusIntern Programme 2013 for 7 IITs
An internship with Internshala is a serious affair. We hire only the best and ensure that they have a time of their lives at Internshala (read Team Diary section to know for yourself). This is precisely the reason, despite hundreds and thousands of student emails every year requesting it, till now we have shied away from a campus intern program.
We believed until we had a structure in place to ensure that we are able to provide a meaningful experience to our campus interns, we would not do it. Now, as we turn two and look to scale new heights, we have the team and energy in place to do it and we are doing it.
Yes, starting today we are launching Internshala CampusIntern program in 7 IITs as a pilot and hope to gradually roll it to 150 campuses over next 18 months.
You’re our hero if you aspire to be an entrepreneur, a leader, a student with a burning desire to leave a mark on the world.
