Common questions interns might ask 

Interns often come prepared with questions. Here are some common questions interns might ask:

  • Is the internship paid or unpaid? Encourage interns to ask the Virtual Internships team directly after the interview ends, as it might depend on their institution's policies. At this stage, highlight other benefits such as skill-building, mentorship, or networking opportunities.

  • What is the expected duration of the internship? Interns typically attend internships as part of their study schedule. You can view their start and end dates on their profile.

  • What are the work hours? Align with the intern if the schedule is flexible or fixed. You can find the intern's working hours listed on their profile.

  • What tools or platforms will I use? Brief them on the software or resources they’ll need to familiarize themselves with during the internship.

  • Will there be any employment opportunities after the internship? Set expectations by explaining that the intern’s performance and the company’s business needs will influence any potential employment opportunities closer to the internship's end.
