Frequently asked questions
Interns who apply with Hatch always get paid. We believe access to work should be fair and equitable for everyone no matter your background.
It depends on your career goals and personal preferences. Interning at a big company has different perks and benefits in comparison to a small company. For example, you may get access to more resources and networking events at a large company. On the other hand, a small company might provide a more hands-on experience that allows you to attain experience across a wide breadth of disciplines. We recommend considering your personal goals and doing your background research before you apply. We also strongly encourage trying out several internships to realise for yourself what is the best fit for you.
Intern roles may vary in flexibility depending on the company and specific position. It is best to inquire about the flexibility of a particular intern role during the application or interview process. At Hatch we often see employers being super flexible, especially when it comes to working around study.
Internships are like real-world boot camps for your career. You apply classroom knowledge to actual projects, building skills while making vital connections. They boost your experience, showing employers you're ready for the job. Plus, you gain insider insights into your chosen field, understanding its culture. Connections made during internships can be life-changing. Approach your internship with enthusiasm, learn actively, and be proactive. It's your ticket to a successful career, turning classroom wisdom into your practical superpowers.
Introduction to internships
Internships are invaluable learning experiences designed to bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and practical work. They offer a unique opportunity for students and early career folk to gain hands-on experience in a field that inspires them. Often internships are flexible around study, and other early career commitments and can even contribute to academic credits in some cases. This makes internships ideal for those who want to have a meaningful work experience, whilst balancing other commitments.
Flexible work opportunities
Internships are often structured to accommodate the schedules of students and young professionals pursuing education. Many companies understand the importance of education and are willing to provide flexible working hours, remote work options, or part-time positions. This flexibility allows individuals to seamlessly integrate their academic commitments with gaining real-world experience. Whether you're attending classes during the day or studying in the evenings, internships can be adapted to fit around your academic routine.
Balancing study and experience
The beauty of internships lies in their ability to provide a platform for applying theoretical knowledge in real-world contexts. By participating in an internship while studying, you can gain a deeper understanding of industry practices and enhance your skill set. Moreover, the experience you gain during internships can significantly boost your resume, making you more attractive to potential employers upon graduation. This symbiotic relationship between internships and study enriches your learning journey and career prospects simultaneously.
Tips for managing internships and study
To make the most of internships while studying, effective time management is key. Plan your schedule meticulously, allocating dedicated hours for both work and study. Communicate openly with your internship supervisor about your academic commitments, and explore options for remote work or flexible hours. Use online tools and resources to streamline your tasks and stay organised. Remember that the skills you acquire during your internship can enhance your academic performance, and vice versa, creating a mutually beneficial cycle of growth.
