Placement Procedure
After submitting an enquiry form, the following steps will be taken:
1. We’ll evaluate your initial enquiry and send you our fees along with additional information.
2. Next, you’ll need to complete and return an application form that outlines your training requirements, along with your CV & Cover Letter, and transfer the initial deposit.
3. Once payment is received, we’ll begin arranging your internship.
4. We’ll then reach out to you with details about a scheduled interview with the qualified host company.
5. If both you and the host company are satisfied with the offered internship, Internships Down Under will facilitate an agreement to secure the placement.
In the event that either party (you or the host company) is not satisfied with the interview, we will continue working to place you in a suitable company. This process can be repeated a maximum of three times.
Please note that we do not arrange multiple interviews/positions for you to choose between. If you have a valid reason for dissatisfaction with a prospective company, Internships Down Under will continue efforts to place you with a suitable company.
6. Once the internship is confirmed and the agreement is signed, final payment is due.
7. It’s now time to make arrangements for accommodation, insurance, flights, and Visa. Internships Down Under can support and assist you with all of these services.
8. Throughout the duration of your internship, Internships Down Under will be in regular contact and remain your support here in Australia.
9. Upon completion of the internship, you may receive a statement of service or reference from the host company detailing the training you received and the skills acquired during your time with them.
Conflict Resolution
While we strive for smooth placements, we acknowledge that in rare cases, a placement may not meet the expectations of the intern or company. In such instances, the following procedure will be followed:
- The intern or company will communicate the issue to Internships Down Under.
- Internships Down Under will gather facts from both parties involved.
- Our team will employ unbiased professional judgment to mediate and resolve the issue.
- If the issue proves beyond resolution, at its sole discretion, Internships Down Under may endevour to find an alternative host company for the intern.
Internships Down Under maintains strict confidentiality regarding all complaints and is committed to supporting both interns and host companies in achieving a mutually beneficial resolution.
