Marketing Internships

In order to get a marketing internship in Canada, you must be registered as a student from an IEC country. You can learn all about what that means, and if you’re eligible, on our internship visa requirements page.

That’s not all. Your host employer also has to take steps for you to apply for an international co-op visa. This includes paying a fee to the Government of Canada. This can be tricky to organize, however, our host employers are willing to support you to receive your visa. We cover this in more detail in our guide on Applying for the Canada International Co-op Visa.

Yes, we offer full-time marketing internships in Canada that last between three to six months.

We can also offer part-time marketing internships if you want to have some time off to discover Canada while you intern. However, remember that you will have an employer-specific visa, therefore you can not work for any other employer in Canada. For that reason, most of our participants take full advantage of doing a full-time internship!

However, generally speaking, we recommend you give yourself at least three months ahead of your planned start date. So, if you want to do a 2023 spring marketing internship, start planning by December, while for 2023 summer marketing internships, start planning by January.
