PROGRAM DETAILS
 
# of Applications: Students are only allowed to apply to THREE Remote Internships. If you apply for more than three you will be disqualified from the program.

Required Site Visit during Fall Break: Remote Interns will make a site visit to their company and city with expenses paid by Tulane during Fall Break (October 10 or 11). Applicants should not make alternative plans for Fall Break until they are notified that they are not selected for interviews (all interview candidates will be announced on September 10) or for participation in the program after the interview rounds (all intern selections will be made on or before September 24). 
 
Office Hours: Remote Interns will work 6-10 hours per week, based on employer preferences. Remote Interns will work remotely from the location of your and your employer's choice (on campus, coffee shop, dorm room/apartment, etc.) Remote interns will set weekly office hours with employers, log daily hours and work summaries, and complete online check-ins for Tulane as a part of the internship process.
 
Resume (Required): Each of these internships require an approved Handshake resume. In order for our career center staff to expedite the review and approval of your resume, please upload your resume in the following format - "TRIP - LAST NAME, RESUME". Once your resume is approved, you can use the same resume for all of your submissions. Resume approval can take up to 48 hours, so do not wait until the last minute to submit. IE if your resume requires additional work based on career center staff suggestions, if you want until 2 days before deadline to submit, you still might not have an approved resume by program deadline. Information about creating effective and approved resumes can be found at http://careerwave.tulane.edu/tripdocumentguide/.
 
Cover Letters (Required): Cover letters - written individually for each internship, should be submitted for approval using the format "TRIP COVER LETTER - COMPANY NAME, LAST NAME." Tips on writing cover letters can be found at http://careerwave.tulane.edu/tripdocumentguide/. Please address all cover letters to Dear Hiring Manager, unless you know for certain who is receiving the cover letter. At minimum, your cover letter should address the following questions:
  • Why are you interested in this position?
  • What skills do you currently possess that you feel will help you succeed in this position? 
  • What do you hope to learn from this internship?
  • Is there anything else about you outside of what's on your resume that you'd like for the employer to know? (Creativity is encouraged with this question).
