How often are new jobs added?

New internships are added continuously throughout the day. We monitor company career pages and hiring tools in real time, so most roles appear on InternshipsHQ shortly after they’re posted.

Why can I only view a limited number per day on the free plan?

The free plan is designed to let you explore the platform and see how fresh the listings are. Limits help us prioritize serious applicants and keep the signal high. Pro removes these limits and gives you full access.

What sources do you pull internships from?

We source internships directly from company career pages, startup hiring platforms, and applicant tracking systems like Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, and others. This helps us surface roles earlier and avoid repost-heavy job boards.

Are these internships legitimate?

Yes. We actively filter out expired, duplicate, misleading, and low-quality listings. Each role is checked for legitimacy and posting freshness so you’re not wasting time on dead or fake opportunities.

Can I filter by location, experience level, remote, or salary?

Yes. You can filter internships by role, location, experience level, remote or hybrid status, and pay when available. Pro users get access to more advanced and saved filters.

Why are early alerts so important?

For internships, timing matters more than volume. Most callbacks happen when roles are still new and applicant pools are small. Early alerts help you apply before listings get flooded.

Do you show salary or pay information?

When companies include pay information, we display it clearly. Not all internships list salary upfront, but we prioritize transparency whenever the data is available.

Is InternshipsHQ suitable for senior or experienced roles?

InternshipsHQ is primarily built for internships, entry-level, and early-career roles. If you’re looking for senior or leadership positions, you may find limited results here.

About the Role

Leidos, a leading defense, intelligence, and technology company, is seeking motivated and aspiring data and software students for our Summer 2027 Internship Program (Starts May 2027). As a Data Engineering & Analytics Intern, you will join our Digital Sector on the Global Solutions Management – Operations II (GSM-O II) contract at Scott AFB, IL. This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience with large-scale data visualization, automation, and software development in direct support of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).

Your Opportunity:

Are you passionate about turning massive datasets into actionable intelligence? As our team helps lead DISA's transition to next-generation platforms, you will be embedded directly with our Operational Engineering and Innovations teams. You will learn how to build dynamic dashboards, test enterprise-level software, and develop automation solutions that have a real-world impact on the security and efficiency of the global Defense Information System Network (DISN).

What You’ll Do (Potential Projects & Learning Opportunities):

Assist in the creation of Kibana visualizations and dashboards to provide critical information to network operators and leadership.
Gain exposure to enterprise data pipelines by assisting with the deployment, configuration, and testing of Kafka and Elastic clusters.
Collaborate with an Agile team, participate in daily scrums, and demonstrate working software.
Develop skills in troubleshooting and resolving infrastructure and system-level issues.
Have the opportunity to design, develop, and test software written in Python, JavaScript, and SQL.

What You’ll Bring (Required):

Citizenship & Clearance: Must be a U.S. citizen and eligible to obtain a DoD Secret security clearance.

Analytical Mindset: A strong desire to learn, keen attention to detail, and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
Location: This internship is based on-site at Scott AFB, Illinois. All work must be performed on site – no teleworking opportunities. Candidates must be in the St. Louis Metro area and have their own transportation.

What We Want (Desired):

Certifications: Obtaining a CompTIA Security+ certification (or any certification that aligns with DoD 8570 IAT Level II) before the start date is strongly encouraged.
