10. FAQs

11. Got questions about INKOMPASS? We're here to answer them all.
Why does INKOMPASS offer a 2-cycle approach?
INKOMPASS, a career 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.

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