We recognise that people from ethnic minority backgrounds are under-represented in our industry and we want to encourage a positive change towards more inclusivity and diversity at 2CV and within our sector. As a result, 2CV's 2019 Internship is very much focussed on this audience.
We're looking for 2 bright sparky interns to join us in the fast-paced world of research full time from end-September for 3 months. You do not need previous experience in research, just a curious mind, a positive attitude and an interest in people and what makes them tick…we can teach you the rest.
Here's a sneak peek from some of our previous interns on what you can expect at 2CV…

Please note that the best 6 candidates will be given the opportunity to attend a 'selection morning' where you will be introduced to some of the team over breakfast, and given some group/individual tasks to complete so we can get a better feel for who you are, your style of work and how you engage within a group/team exercise. We try to keep this session as informal and friendly as possible, It's not designed to be a scary or competitive (this isn't The Apprentice!).
