The purpose of the internship program is to provide college students with “hands-on” experience working in a dynamic workplace, where they can expand themselves, build professionalism, learn new skills, and gain firsthand experience with what is takes to work, live , and conduct business in China.

Vericant offers a professional experience that will expose you to what it’s like to work in a fast-paced international startup. We know that you are just starting your professional journey, and we care more about your capacity to grow and learn rather than what is in your head right now. We believe that you can add a lot to our work environment, and while you are here you will be given the opportunity to make real contributions and to take ownership of projects. Spend a few months building great systems, alongside great teammates.
