Internship applications

Everything in the Internship Opportunities collection, laid out for applying rather than browsing: the direct link, the deadline when the host publishes one, and where to ask questions. Anything listed as having no published deadline is still worth opening — plenty of programs quietly close months before the start date, so trust each posting over this page.

  • U.S. Department of Labor AI Skills in Registered Apprenticeships Initiative

    U.S. Department of Labor

    Apply

    An April 2026 U.S. Department of Labor announcement of a national contracting opportunity to integrate artificial intelligence skills into Registered Apprenticeship programs. The Employment and Training Administration initiative seeks to expand AI-related training, modernize apprenticeship programs, and build AI literacy and technical skills across industries, aligning with the department's AI Literacy Framework and the Make America AI-Ready initiative.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: If you want to move into AI-adjacent work without a four-year degree, Registered Apprenticeships are one of the few earn-while-you-learn paths, and this initiative is the signal that AI skills are now part of that pipeline. Watch your state's apprenticeship sponsor list for AI-related openings.

  • AI is killing the grunt work, forcing companies to rethink entry-level hiring (CNBC)

    CNBC

    Apply

    CNBC report (Sept. 23, 2026) on AI taking over junior-level tasks and how employers are changing graduate and entry-level hiring.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Free to read. Examples come mostly from large firms; smaller employers may look different.

  • AI, computer science and the shifting reality of tech employment

    Higher Ed Dive

    Apply

    Sponsored piece (Feb. 2026) arguing CS jobs aren't collapsing but getting harder to enter; cites 6.1% unemployment for new CS grads vs 4.8% overall.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Paid content written by Rize Education, which sells courses to colleges. Free to read.

  • Workforce: Why some college grads are not finding jobs

    The Journalist's Resource

    Apply

    The Journalist's Resource explains, with sociologist Corey Moss-Pech, that high unemployment among new grads began before AI.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Free research roundup. Useful counterweight to "AI took the jobs" headlines.

  • Meta Rotational Programs (RPM and Rotational Network Engineering)

    Meta

    Apply

    Meta's own page for its two rotational programs. The Rotational Product Manager (RPM) program is 18 months of short-term employment for early-career product managers: a four-week product bootcamp, then three rotations through different product teams, based in Menlo Park or New York City, with start dates of March 2027 and September 2027. Applications open once a year, typically late summer or early autumn, and need a resume plus a short questionnaire. A Rotational Network Engineering track is listed alongside it. At the end of the program you are evaluated and considered for a full-time role.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Free to apply, no fee, and it is a paid job rather than a course — which makes it one of the few genuine ways into product management without already having the title. Read the status line on the page rather than my summary: when I checked on 23 September 2026 it said applications open 23 September 2026, so the window may be open right now and it only comes once a year. Three honest points. It is short-term employment, not a permanent job: a full-time offer at the end is considered, not promised. It is in-person in Menlo Park or New York, so housing costs are yours. And this is Meta's own recruitment page — every description of the experience, including the quoted testimonial, was chosen by the employer.

  • Microsoft Datacenter Academy

    Microsoft

    Apply

    Microsoft's community skilling programme that partners with local community colleges and vocational schools to train people for entry-level datacenter and digital-infrastructure jobs. The five parts are aligned curriculum, a hands-on datacenter lab, mentoring from Microsoft datacenter staff, work experience at a Microsoft datacenter, and scholarships or financial grants. It runs in cohorts through named partner schools rather than as an online course you sign up for.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: The honest version: this page is the program overview, not an application. The training is delivered by a local partner school, so start at the locations list and go to the school nearest you for dates, entry requirements and what the school itself charges — Microsoft's scholarships cover tuition, fees and certification exams only for students who qualify, so ask the school in writing what you would owe if you don't get one. Microsoft says more than 12,500 people have enrolled since 2018 across at least 14 countries; treat any jobs or salary figures the program quotes as its own marketing, not a promise of a Microsoft job.

  • Capital One Full-Time Programs for Students and Grads

    Capital One

    Apply

    Capital One's full-time rotational programs for new graduates, covering technology, data, business analysis, product, design, audit and management tracks. Associates rotate across teams for a set period with structured mentorship, then settle into a role. The page lists each program and links to its current openings.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: These are paid graduate jobs, not training you buy, and applying costs nothing. Rotational programs suit you if you do not know which team you want; if you already do, a direct role gets you there faster. Openings are seasonal, so search the listings rather than trusting the overview page, and check each posting for the degree year and work-authorization requirements before you spend time on the application.

  • How AI Is Reshaping Entry-Level Tech Jobs (IEEE Spectrum)

    IEEE Spectrum

    Apply

    IEEE Spectrum article on how AI is shifting entry-level engineering work toward higher-order thinking, review and collaboration skills, and what recent graduates can do about it.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Free to read on IEEE Spectrum. Practical if you are early-career: it describes what junior work is turning into rather than predicting job counts.

  • Huntr internship resume examples

    Huntr

    Apply

    Free library of internship resume examples with section-by-section wording you can adapt when you have little formal work history.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Read two or three examples in your field, then rewrite your own bullets to name a task, a tool and a result. Copying the phrasing wholesale is what makes student resumes read alike.

  • Microsoft Research

    Microsoft Research

    Apply

    Microsoft's research division: published papers, open datasets and tools, plus its internship and residency programs.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: The publications are free to read and the programs page lists real entry routes into research work. Both are more useful than the marketing pages.

  • Amazon Web Services Early Career

    amazon.jobs

    Apply

    AWS's own page for students and recent graduates: internships, new-grad roles and the programs it runs to fill them.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Read the timelines carefully. Big-company early-career programs often close months before the start date, so a page that looks open all year usually is not.

  • Blue Origin Internships

    Blue Origin

    Apply

    Blue Origin's internship listings — paid engineering, business and operations placements, with the application windows and locations for each.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Aerospace internships close early — most summer openings are filled by the previous autumn.

  • NACE Career Readiness Resources

    National Association of Colleges and Employers

    Apply

    The National Association of Colleges and Employers' free library on career readiness — the eight competencies employers say they screen for, plus assessments and guides.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: This is where the "career readiness competencies" language in graduate job descriptions comes from — worth reading so you can mirror it back. Paywall note: the competency pages linked from here are free, but NACE's survey data, salary reports and full Job Outlook editions require paid membership — stick to the free material unless your school already has a membership.

  • Labcorp Internships

    Labcorp

    Apply

    Labcorp's global internship listings across laboratory science, data, IT and corporate functions, searchable by location and field.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: A useful one if you want lab or health-data experience without a research-university connection.

  • SEO Career Program — Application FAQ

    Sponsors for Educational Opportunity

    Apply

    Sponsors for Educational Opportunity's answers on who qualifies, what the application asks for and how the interview process runs for its free career program for underrepresented students.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Read the FAQ before the application form — it tells you what the interview actually tests, which is not what the form implies.

  • NASA Pathways Internships & Recent Graduate Program

    NASA

    Apply

    NASA's official Pathways program: paid internships, recent-graduate placements and fellowships across every NASA centre, with conversion to permanent federal roles for students who complete the program.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Federal hiring runs on its own calendar — Pathways openings post on USAJOBS in short windows, so check this page monthly rather than once.

  • The Education Crisis

    Simply Put by Ed Elson

    Apply

    Ed Elson's Simply Put essay on how AI, cost and weakening returns on a degree are reshaping education and the entry-level job market.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Useful context if you are deciding whether more school is the answer. It argues the credential is worth less than the proof of work.

  • Randstad USA — Job Search & Staffing

    Randstad

    Apply

    Free job board and staffing service from one of the largest talent agencies in the US: search openings by role and location, upload a resume once, and get matched with recruiters for temporary, contract and permanent roles across administrative, light industrial, technology, finance and healthcare work.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Worth registering even if you are not applying today — recruiters here often work roles that never get posted publicly, and the intake is free to job seekers.

  • Vals AI Fellowship

    Vals AI

    Apply

    A fellowship with Vals AI, the team that benchmarks how AI models actually perform, for people who want to work on model evaluation.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Evaluation work is where a lot of AI hiring is heading — careful, skeptical people do well here even without a PhD.

  • Amplify Writing Fellowship

    Amplify Partners

    Apply

    A fellowship from Amplify Partners for people who write well about technology, supporting a body of published work rather than a job.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Writing in public is still the cheapest career leverage there is — a fellowship that pays for it is rare, so take it seriously.

  • Perplexity Research Residency

    Perplexity

    Apply

    A residency at Perplexity for people who want to do applied AI research on a working product rather than in a lab.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: A residency is the friendliest door into research — you are paid to learn on a real team instead of needing the credential first.

  • a16z FDE Fellowship

    a16z

    Apply

    A fellowship from a16z for aspiring forward-deployed engineers — people who sit with customers and build software directly against their problems.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: The forward-deployed engineer role is one of the fastest-growing job titles in AI — this is a paid-attention way in before the market floods.

  • Listen Future Founder Program

    Listen Labs

    Apply

    A program from Listen Labs for people who want to start a company: you work on a real idea with support from the Listen team, with no cost to take part.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Apply if you already have a company idea you keep coming back to — programs like this reward a specific problem over a polished resume.

  • DoorDash AI Research Fellowship (Summer & Fall 2026)

    DoorDash

    Apply

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Applied AI inside a logistics company teaches you constraints a lab never will — and the posting names its terms up front, which is a good sign.

  • Graduating in the AI Era Is Like a Large Recession for Starting Pay

    Staffing Industry Analysts

    Apply

    Staffing Industry Analysts report on research showing that college graduates entering the workforce during the AI boom face starting-pay and employment conditions comparable to a major recession. Useful context for salary expectations and negotiation.

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Read this before you accept a first offer — knowing the market backdrop keeps a low number from feeling personal.

  • Apprenticeships Unlocked

    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Valuable if you are exploring apprenticeship as a pathway into a new field or want to see how employers build paid, learn-while-you-earn programs.

    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: If you want to work in education — teaching or the operations and equity side — a sector-specific matcher beats another general board. The profile is free and the matching happens on their end.

  • Britebound Center at JFF — career navigation for young adults

    Jobs for the Future (JFF)

    Apply

    Free career navigation resources from Jobs for the Future for young adults deciding what comes after high school: exploring paths, paying for them, and landing quality jobs.

    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: Set your job preferences first — the default feed is enormous and only becomes useful once the matching has something to work with.

  • Jane Street Programs and Events (North America)

    Jane Street

    Apply

    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself

    Why I recommend it: This is one of the strongest no-cost routes into tech if you do not have a degree or experience. It is instructor-led and cohort-based, so treat the application deadline seriously and be ready to commit real weekly hours for five months.

  • Extern

    extern.com

    Deadline
    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open
    Where to ask questions

  • RippleMatch

    ripplematch.com

    Apply

    No published deadline — check the posting itself before assuming it's open

    Use the contact details on the application page itself

  • Handshake

    joinhandshake.com

    Apply

    Where to ask questions
    Use the contact details on the application page itself
