Internship and program length varies. Full-time summer internships for U.S. undergrads may be as short as eight weeks. Co-ops last for a full fall or spring semester (four months). Traineeships may last up to 24 months.
It varies by role. PepsiCo job listings and recruiters can give you specific details for the internship or program that you’re researching. Some internships include pay and expenses, others are unpaid learning opportunities. Be sure to ask about PepsiCo’s fun perks and extras, like social activities and executive lunch-and-learns.
Applying for an internship or program is as easy as applying for any job at PepsiCo. First, browse job openings that fit your location and career area. When you find something you like, study the whole job description. Look at the job responsibilities and make notes on how you have accomplished similar tasks. Now, apply online to the job or internship you want using Candidate Zone to enter your details and answer prescreening questions. Checking your application status is easy. Use Candidate Zone to get private updates and contact our recruiting team.
Adding a PepsiCo internship to your resume is impressive. But our internships are more than check marks that get you in the door somewhere else. With us, you’ll learn the art of creating a professional network of thinkers, doers and makers. You’ll grow your skill set, refine existing passions and discover new ones. You’ll get professional feedback you can use.
