11. FAQs

12. Got questions about INKOMPASS? We're here to answer them all
Why does INKOMPASS offer a 2-cycle approach?
The college internship program offers a 2-cycle approach 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.

13. What happens if I don’t want to commit myself to participate in
the 2nd cycle?
We strive to ensure you have a great 1st cycle experience so that you

However, in case you do not want to continue, there is no obligation for
you to do so.
