About internship programs
Life sciences companies and organizations (primarily within Sweden) have the opportunity to:

- recruit highly skilled candidates for short term projects
- establish contacts within many research fields at KI
- A company suggests an internship project and presents it to the KI Career Service
- Career Service announces the projects to KI researchers on the website and recruitment system
- Career Service organizes a Mingle event for each company/organisation to pitch their project to their target audience (projects specific for doctoral students, for postdocs and researchers, or both)
- The Mingle Event turns into a very popular networking event for both companies and internship candidates to meet each other before the deadline of applications
- The company/organisations' representative interviews candidates and do the final selection for the internship and a contract is set up
