12. Got questions about INKOMPASS? We're here to answer them all
Why does INKOMPASS offer a 2-cycle approach?
INKOMPASS offers a 2-cycle international internship program for
students because it is an experiential job interview, giving you a
better chance to showcase your skills and abilities and giving us a
better chance to get to know you.
Across the two cycles, you will work on projects that will allow you to
discover our business challenges, opportunities, processes and
systems.
The 1st cycle will give you the opportunity to discover several aspects
of our company (i.e. operations, people and culture) through projects
that allow you to interact with people from different areas.
The 2nd cycle will give you the opportunity to experience a deep dive
into a specific department or functional area.

the 2nd cycle?
We strive to ensure you have a great 1st cycle experience so that
you eagerly look forward to get selected for the 2nd cycle.
However, in case you do not want to continue, there is no
obligation for you to do so.
