CareerDC charges a coordination fee for each internship program. The service includes a tailored CV update, host company matching, interview preparation, interview coordination and scheduling, unlimited interviews to achieve a placement, a work experience placement relevant to your studies, academic credit or an accredited Work Integrated Learning (WIL) course as relevant, and a certificate of completion at the end of the experience.

Who can apply?

• University students in Australia
  If you're studying IT and your course has a placement requirement, this program can help you complete it while gaining practical experience. The program is suitable for both international and domestic students in Australia.
• New graduates and students without a placement requirement
  If your degree doesn't include an internship, or you've recently graduated, you may be able to join the program and combine your work experience placement with an accredited Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program.
