A short application, by our reading.

1. What to get ready

CV or resumeOne or two pages. No CV yet? Our CV starter builds a plain one from your answers.
Certificates or degree copiesScan or photograph them clearly, in good light, flat.

In their words: “ID, CV, degree or any other certificate proving all academic requirements are met.”

2. Dates

No closing date is stated.
Openings with no closing date can close once they have enough people, so sooner is safer. Our advice
On the date, the listing says: No closing date. Two official pages name different places to apply: the Rwanda LMIS page says to apply through rdb.rw under E-Services, and the programme site internship.rw points to the MIFOTRA recruitment portal. Both pages load.

Tips for applying for an internship

General advice from us, the same for every internship. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.

Check first whether it is paid. If it is not, work out how you will cover transport, food and rent for the whole period.
Say what you want to learn and why this organisation; interns are often chosen for interest and reliability more than experience.
School projects, clubs and volunteering count as experience here. Name what you did in each.
If it asks for a letter from your school, ask for it early; offices can be slow.

If there is an interview or a test

Expect questions about what you are studying and why you want this.
Be honest about when you are free and for how long.
Ask who you would work with day to day.

All our tips and messages to copy. Practise answering, with nothing kept. Received an offer? Check whether it is real, then read before you say yes.
