Who can apply?

  • Students must be concurrently enrolled in an accredited degree-seeking program and return to that program after the internship or co-op.
  • Intuitive says it has historically hired rising juniors and above across bachelor's, master's and PhD programs, but the hiring manager sets the qualifications for each opening.
  • Applicants must be authorized to work in the country where the role is advertised. The US FAQ says F-1 students may be eligible; confirm the selected role and your own authorization.
Easy to miss

'Rising junior and above' is a historical recruiting pattern in Intuitive's FAQ, not a universal eligibility rule that replaces the current posting.
