Interns at Google bring questions and build answers. Google offers a range of internships across EMEA and durations and start dates vary according to a project and location. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and the recruitment team will determine where you fit best based on your resume.

Internship Areas

Business Internships are typically offered in the following business areas:Sales and Customer Service:

Google’s Advertising Sales and Global Customer Service roles find innovative solutions that meet their clients’ changing needs. They identify business challenges, collaboratively shape solutions that drive strategic initiatives and keep clients informed of the ways Google products can enhance their online and offline presence.

Large Customer Sales:

Google’s Large Customer Sales teams partner closely with many of the world’s biggest advertisers and agencies to develop digital solutions that build strong businesses and brands. They enjoy a bird’s eye view on the massive transformation occurring as advertising shifts to mobile and online platforms. They’re uniquely situated to help shape how companies grow their businesses in the digital age. They advise clients on Google’s broad range of products across search, video and mobile to help them connect instantly and seamlessly with their audiences.

Google for Work:

They’ve helped millions of employees and organizations around the world to “go Google.” As masters of cloud computing, the Google for Work team helps small and large businesses, educational institutions and government agencies discover the wonders of “the cloud” and work smarter. Their technical and sales teams design and implement solutions for these organizations with custom features, security and support — all with Google’s philosophy of innovation and ease of use in mind.

People Operations:

Google’s People Operations roles are focused on redefining “human resources” and preserving Google’s unique culture in the way they attract, hire, develop and reward talented people.

Marketing:

Google’s Marketing team applies the same level of creative originality to Google’s marketing campaigns that the company has applied to online search and advertising. They support Google’s growth and business generating efforts through effective and results-focused marketing campaigns for both business and consumer products.

Africa Internship Program:

The Africa team focuses on accessibility, relevance, and outreach. They want to make it easier for African users to access information on the internet, deliver more relevant content, and build relationships with Africans who are building the internet.
