Who can apply?

Internships are for students who want to combine their studies with actual work experience. How the internship is structured depends on the course and the school, for example 2 days/3 days, 1 week/1 week, 2 weeks/2 weeks, etc. An internship is a win-win situation through which young people benefit from both solid training and their first work experience.
Up to Bachelor's level, Renault proposes internships for students working towards high school degrees, a vocational diploma or a Bachelor's degree. Renault also recruits interns at a post-Masters level. 

What's on offer?

Each internship corresponds to a specific requirement within the company. For students up to Bachelor's level, Renault proposes internships in : 
- engineering: drafting, engine development, measures, 
- electronics, 
- maintenance, 
- production operators, 
- commercial: after-sales service, after-sales technicians, diagnoses, etc.
- support: accounting, admin, etc.
The majority of internships at post-Masters level target students from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure du Pétrole et des Moteurs (ENSPM). Others can be for students in electronics, mechanics, sales and marketing, human resources and admin. 

The selection process

Up to Bachelor's level, students come to Renault through their local Intern Training Centre or school. They begin by taking Renault's pre-selection tests. These are the same as for graduates applying for a job, although criteria are adapted to candidates' study level, the prime objective being to spot potential. Successful candidates go on to an interview with human resources and an interview with their future mentor or supervisor. 
At Master's level and beyond, applicants for internships are interviewed at least twice: once with a member of the recruiting department and once with human resources. 

Balancing work and study

Successful candidates sign a contract for an internship of between one and three years. They are assisted by a mentor whose role is to ensure they acquire new and relevant knowledge. The interns’ teachers also monitor their progress in the company. A logbook maintains contact between the school and the company. Halfway through the contract, a review meeting checks that the internship is progressing in line with objectives.
