A resume template to land your internship

An internship supervisor often receives many applications for the same period. They check two things first: do the dates match their needs, and does your field of study fit the role? A good internship resume answers these questions at the top of the page, then shows what you can already do.

What to put at the top

  • The type of internship: “Marketing Intern”, “Accounting Intern”.
  • The length and dates: “Summer 2027, 10 weeks”.
  • Your current program, with your year of study.
  • Your city, and whether you’re willing to relocate.

An example summary for an internship

“Junior communications student looking for a ten-week summer internship to support social media and events at a company or nonprofit.”

Stand out with your projects

Without long work experience, your projects make the difference. A class project for a real company, a club responsibility, a personal creation: describe each like a job, with a result. “Grew the club’s Instagram account from 800 to 2,400 followers in one year” says far more than a listed skill.

Tailor your resume to each application

  1. Use the internship title from the posting in your resume title.
  2. List the skills the posting asks for first.
  3. Adapt your summary to the company: a project, a product, a value.
  4. Check that your internship dates match the posting.

Common mistakes

  • Forgetting the internship dates or length.
  • A list of courses instead of concrete projects.
  • A two-page resume.
  • The same application for every industry.

Sending your internship application

By email, write a short message: the internship you’re seeking, its length and dates, your program, and one sentence on what draws you to the company. Attach your resume as a PDF named with your first and last name. If you haven’t heard back after ten days, a polite follow-up is perfectly normal.

Consider cold applications too: many internships are never posted. Target companies that match your field, find the name of a manager, and adapt your resume summary to each one.

After the internship

Once the internship is over, add it to your resume as real experience, with your responsibilities and a result. It will become your best argument for the next internship or your first job.

Frequently asked questions

What should go first on an internship resume?

The internship you're looking for, with its length and dates, in the title or summary. Then your education, followed by your experience and projects.

Should I mention school credit for the internship?

Not necessary on the resume: simply say whether the internship is part of your program. Details are settled once the company agrees.

How can I stand out with no experience?

With concrete projects: a class project, a club, a personal creation. Describe what you did and the result you achieved.

When should I apply for an internship?

Two to four months before the start date is a good range. For large companies, even earlier: summer internships often open in the fall.
