Some frequently asked questions about internships at delaware
-
There’s a diverse range of people doing internships at delaware, ranging from developers to commercial engineers and everything in between. The only thing we expect from you is to believe in IT solutions, be eager to learn and to be okay with working on your project autonomously, even if a whole team is working next to you.
-
We consider all applications but prefer internships that last at least 2 months. As you would get an innovation project to work on, it would be hard to get started and integrate in the company in a shorter period of time. That’s also why we prefer to have you on board full time (or at least on a part-time basis, e.g. three days a week).
-
You will be applying for an internship in general, before choosing a specific project. We'll have a first phone call to discuss your interests, so you can tell us what you expect from your internship regarding the topic, timing, etc. Then we will try to find the perfect project for you to work on and a mentor who will guide you along the way. As our consultants are moving around a lot to meet with our customers, work from home, going into office… we want to make sure you get an internship project that you work on autonomously. You can do your own project from A to Z with different colleagues to help you solve any questions you may have.

Whenever you’re ready! Our internship offer is always online and we'll always consider your application. However, there are some key moments to take into account if you want to have more project opportunities.
- For internships starting during the summer break (for most autonomus universities) - e.g. May to August, students usually apply between Feburary and April.
- For internships starting in the winter break, we receive most applications in September to November.
- We are also happy to welcome students who are keen to take up a semester internship with us, please indicate your preference during application.
- Keep in mind: The sooner the better, as we need some time to build a project for you.
-
After you’ve sent us your application, you will first be contacted by one of our recruiters to set up a call. During the call you can tell us more about your internship expectations and constraints. We then talk to different potential mentors to find the perfect match for you.
Once a mentor is interested, we’ll organise a (virtual) interview with the mentor for you to align on the project and practicalities. If both parties are convinced, you can provide us with your internship contract and we'll sign it together!
The application process may look a little different given the current circumstances – think less face-to-face, more digital (during this period)
