APPLICATION PROCESS
There are 40+ sectors or workstreams represented under the programme. You will be prompted to select three areas of interest and be asked to explain, in up to 250 words, why you are interested in an internship in each of these workstreams.
Your application will be sent to organisations that have internships available in correlating business areas or workstreams and your answers will inform whether they decide to take your application forward, so remember to proofread your work and make the most of your 250 words!
