Application process
By following these quick and simple steps, you will be well on your way to getting to Canada for your dream internship!
1. Sign up and pay deposit
Sign up on our website or over the phone and pay your deposit. Our Canada internship specialists will then give you a call to explain the placement process, at which point we will request documents from you including your resume and a cover letter.
2. Welcome Call
Our Vancouver team will then arrange for you to have a Skype chat to talk through your personal goals for your internship, university requirements (if necessary) and your desired internship start date and duration. Once the team confirms that they are able to find you a suitable placement, your next payment will be due.
3. Finding your perfect placement
Once we have your details and requirements we will start contacting our network of employers to find you an internship which matches your needs. When we have found a possible match we will set up a Skype or phone interview between you and the employer.
4. Placement Agreement
Once we have found you the perfect placement, we will draft an internship contract for you and your employer to sign. The agreement secures your internship and gives us the go-ahead to set you up for arriving in Canada.
Once your internship has been secured, we will talk through your accommodation options and give you more information on everything you need to prepare for Canada.
5. Planning your trip
Our experienced team members are standing by to help you plan the rest of your trip. This includes help with all necessary preparation including visa, insurance, accommodation and flights.
Congratulations! You are about to embark on an incredible journey.
