Are you eligible?

Check your year group

Summer Internship programmes are normally aimed at students in their penultimate year, which for the 2027 cycle means graduating in 2028.

When do you expect to graduate?

A year group is a convention, not a rule. The wording on the employer's own listing decides it.

How to prepare for this one

Internship processes at this level test fundamentals, structured problem-solving and whether you can explain your reasoning while you work.

Practise it, don't just read it

Free, no sign-up, and short enough to finish before you submit.
