12. Got questions about INKOMPASS? We're here to answer them all.
Why does INKOMPASS offer a 2-cycle approach?
INKOMPASS global internship program offers a 2-cycle approach because it is
an experiential job interview, giving you a better chance to showcase your

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.
