Who this role suits

Students and recent graduates who want hands-on experience. Internships are usually judged on curiosity, projects and coursework rather than years of work history.

How to prepare your application

  • Put one or two projects near the top of your résumé, with a link a recruiter can open in a few seconds.
  • Revise core fundamentals for the role; early-career interviews lean heavily on basics and how you reason through a problem.
  • Read what Summit publishes about its product or team, so you can say clearly why this role and this company.

Apply only on Summit's own site. A genuine employer never asks candidates for money, deposits or bank details to apply, interview or “secure” a job. If something looks wrong, use Report a problem with this listing and we will review it. Read how we check listings.
