What is a company internship program?

Have you ever heard about companies offering internship programs? An Internship program is also known as “work placements” or “industrial placements”, is when a company offers an opening to candidates who they see as potential employees, to work at their organization for a limited period of time.

These employees are called “Interns” and they may be offered full time or part time positions which usually last from 3 to 6 months and sometimes only a few weeks. Typically, interns are university graduates who are not yet employed by any company. Internships usually focus more on training the individuals rather than making them complete employment tasks.
