Internship offer email

Organizations often recruit interns instead of permanent employees, either for particular projects or for a specific duration. When someone – a college student or not – wants to serve your organization as an intern, he or she should still be sent a confirmation email. It might not be a permanent position, but the significance of a written email can never be undermined.

The content should include:
● Congratulations on being selected as an intern.
● Highlight a factor in the applicant’s profile that helped him or her to get selected.
● The exact designation for the internship.
● The reporting manager’s name and designation.
● Details of any stipend.
● The length of the internship being offered.
● A reference to an attached document that details the terms of engagement.
