Internship FAQ

Is this a vacation internship?

No, it is an ongoing internship of 20 hr/week on average. You can work more than this in periods of less university and full-time over the holidays.

Can I be an intern for longer than 6 months?

We expect that you start your career path with us. You can be in the internship program as long as you need if you still have university commitments. Since you are always learning new things and working on new projects, the internship remains exciting, and it gives you hands-on experience working with clients on meaningful projects (something that you just can’t get from university).

How long is a typical internship contract?

The length of your contract is undetermined. Here, we expect that you will achieve great performance and you will start your career path to become a consultant and a partner.
