We believe that, just like your peers, you start your study journey with big dreams and high hopes. And we don’t see any reason why you shouldn’t stick to them. Imagine this: you finish your studies, you graduate and you instantly get hired by your dream company, doing your dream job. Sometimes, they might even give you a job offer before you know when your graduation ceremony will be held. Big dreams, high hopes indeed.
Sure, you will need to study and work hard for this scenario to pull through, but nobody says it can’t come true. And there’s something that can help you along the way: having the likes of Google, Apple, Microsoft, Tesla or The Walt Disney Company on your resume before graduation. Yes, we are talking about the top most-wanted internships in the world.
