Gain authentic workplace experience in one of the world's most dynamic cities through an FIE London internship. You will build cultural intelligence, expand your perspective, and explore future career paths.
| OPPORTUNITIES FOR EVERY MAJOR | WHAT TO EXPECT | FIE SUPPORT & SUCCESS |
| Select your top three choices from FIE's wide variety of industry sectors to find options to suit your major, experience, and career goals. While we always target your primary preferences first, your final placement may be secured in any of your three selected options. | All positions are unpaid, entry-level roles. Most host companies and organizations are dynamic, small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs), non-profits, or charities rather than big brand-name corporations. | Your personal Internship Advisor will manage your placement search, but host companies make the final hiring choices based on your submitted materials and interview. Read our guidance and follow our instructions carefully to position yourself as a strong, competitive candidate. |
London Internship students can select from the following industries:
⭐= Most popular: Our largest networks of host organizations, providing extensive placement capacity across these sectors.
⚠️= Highly competitive: Capacity in these sectors is limited with demand exceeding supply. If selected, ensure your other two options are areas you are equally excited to pursue.
➕= Require significant, relevant previous experience: Placement opportunities in these sectors are typically limited to students with prior direct work experience in the field
