What is the Frontrunner Internship Scheme?

Frontrunners is the University’s on-campus internship scheme, designed specifically for those of you with little or no work experience with the aim of building your knowledge, skills and confidence in the workplace. Taking part in the scheme comes with the added bonus of getting paid for your time.

This year’s placements will be advertised on the Student Directory and Career Hub from 26 September. The closing date is 31 October. Interviews are expected in November with a starting date from 16 Jan 2023.

We have a number of Application Support workshops to help you apply to this programme - please visit Careerhub to book your place!

Or if you just want to find out if a Frontrunners opportunity could be for you come along to our online Information Drop-in Sessions and bring your questions. We'll be ready!

Book your place via CareerHub.

If you have selected an online session please make sure you have Zoom set up (with your Essex email) before this webinar begins.  

The Careers Services team are here to help you make the most of your Essex experience and help you reach your full potential. We offer support with CVs, applications, interview skills and careers tailored advice. All of our workshops can be booked via CareerHub.
