Our bespoke careers service helps you find your dream internship

At Les Roches, we promise every student career support tailored to them, from the moment you step onto campus to securing your first job after graduation.

That support is comes into its own when it comes to finding and securing internships.  One of the highlights of every semester is Recruitment Day, where top brands in the industry flock to campus to find and recruit the talent they need.

Your internships will make you more employable

When it comes to landing that crucial first role after graduation, how do you prove to a potential employer you’ve got what it takes? No matter how well you perform in the interview, you could be up against other candidates who have actually worked in the sector, giving them a big advantage.

Internships are your chance to show your best side and gain that crucial edge. And it works: a significant proportion of our students end up taking a job at a company they’ve interned with.

All these reasons – and more – add up to why the internship is such an essential part of your Les Roches Bachelor’s program. So what are you waiting for? Time to get to work.
