Mentors select interns by looking through applications in iRecruitment. Please note that internships positions here are competitive and the decision to hire students rests entirely with mentors — the Student Programs Office has no say in the hiring process. Once a mentor has narrowed their search, they will reach out to the student, or students, to conduct an interview. Given the number of applicants, not every student will hear back.
