Career benefits of an electrical engineering internship

Enhance your resume

Cross-discipline collaboration is prominent within the electrical engineering space, and being an electrical engineer with broad expertise and knowledge is highly sought-after and valued. Prospects in the field can expect to find themselves working amongst other engineers in the automotive, construction, FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods), materials and pharmaceuticals space.

Permanent position

Electrical engineering internships bring students and graduates closer to off-market job opportunities and networks, often leading to permanent positions as an intern electrical engineer. By completing an internship in the engineering sector, interns will have the opportunity to contribute to the company’s hands-on business projects and daily operational processes. Hence, interns will acquire significant work experiences that will be relevant for their professional career development post-graduation.

Hone your speciality

Before plunging into full-time work, an electrical engineering internship allows you to explore the career opportunities available without the pressures of a direct employee-employer relationship. The workplace is your classroom; use it to your advantage and try to absorb as much as you can.
