Year-round internship placement services including: resume writing assistance, interview preparation, and guaranteed internship placement from Canada’s Internship Experts.

Vancouver Internships are specialists in internship, and co-op placements. Since our founding in 2008, we have placed hundreds of students at internships and co-ops in and around Vancouver. Students have completed internships in fields as diverse as art gallery administration, private banking, and electrical engineering.

Our Student Internship Program is now open for Fall 2010 applications. If you are a student at a Canadian university or college, and have a GPA of at least 3.0, then there are dozens of different internships open to you here in Vancouver.

Guaranteed Internship Placements

Vancouver Internships has a 99% success rate in placing interns.  We achieve this success rate by being choosy about the students we accept.  However, once we do accept you, rest assured that you will have an internship in your field, by your start date, or you will receive a 100% refund.

If you are accepted into the program, you will be asked to pay a deposit of $300 to confirm your enrolment. Once your internship interview is arranged, your remaining fees become due. Payment can be made online by Pay Pal, credit card or Interac email transfer, or through the mail, by cheque.

Enrollment Procedure

To enroll in the Student Internship program for Fall 2010, please complete the application form here. After we have received your application form, a Vancouver Internships staff member will evaluate it and determine if you meet all basic requirements. If you meet requirements, we will contact you to schedule a telephone consultation. During this consultation, we will discuss your internship objectives, and assess your ‘placeability’ and answer any questions you may have.

If you are accepted into the program, you will be sent an internship offer letter, describing what internship options are open to you, and listing your program structure (number of weeks you want to intern, and your desired start date). After receiving this and paying your deposit, you will be officially enrolled and will begin resume counseling and your placement process.
