Accounting & IT graduates available for 3 months at no cost to you
Interns are young qualified people available to work for you for 3 months at no cost to you. Our interns are degree-qualified Accounting & IT graduates of Australian universities. Their 3 month work experience internship is part of a 44 week training program with Performance Education that is overseen by the accounting bodies (CPA, CA & NIA) and the Australian Computer Society (ACS).
Many Australian companies (see below) are taking advantage of the growing trend to take on interns because it offers them a no-cost solution to resourcing challenges and involves them in the training of our future workforce. You are not required to pay them a salary, nor offer them further employment (although quite a few do) and we take care of their workers compensation insurance. All you need to do is give them relevant supervised accounting or IT work. It’s that easy.
