All students enrolled in a university and matching job requirement can apply to an internship at Airbus. Some countries might have specific requirements.
By doing your internship in Airbus, you will discover a job in your field of study alongside experienced employees working in a wide range of disciplines. You can learn more about business management and development, engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, ICT and Cyber, manufacturing engineering, materials and processes, maths, physics, robotics or supply chain. We are sure you will find an opportunity tailored for you!
Our interns benefit from bank holidays and paid annual leave subject to policy of the entity you are placed at. Regarding the duration of the internships and your country policy, you can also get financial compensation for your work.
Internships at Airbus usually last three months or more.
Please consider that for our published internship positions in France, Germany and the UK, candidates need to be enrolled in a university for the whole time of the working contract in order to be considered for the internship position.
You can certainly apply for more than one position at the same time, but it doesn’t necessarily increase your chances of being selected. We strongly advise that you only apply for positions that truly fit your skills and experience, and that you provide as much information about yourself as possible in your online application. Therefore, you need to create your own profile in your Candidate Account, which you can use for all your applications within our company.
In principle, this is possible and often topics arise during internships. However, we cannot give any information about whether it is possible in a specific case, as this must be clarified with the department in question at the appropriate time.
The start date can be adjusted slightly after a consultation with the department. You will get more detailed information from the department if you get invited to an interview. Please let us know your availability in your cover letter.
Please upload your CV, a cover letter (please type it into the free text field rather than attach the document), relevant certificates and your university grades.
