Internships: Job Postings Snapshot

Internship and co-op job postings. 150,057 jobs, one row per job, from a snapshot taken on 2026-10-19 of the jobs Headcount Labs reads from employers' own hiring systems. 1.8% of the 8,367,419 jobs with a title in the snapshot match.

Source: Headcount Labs (headcountlabs.com), licensed under ODbL 1.0. Live data is at headcountlabs.com.

Which jobs are included

A job is in this dataset when its employment_type (any of the postings merged into the job) contains the word intern, internship, co-op or Praktikum, or when its title contains one of those words as a whole word. 86,788 jobs match on employment type; 63,269 more match on the title only. Employment type is free text that varies by source, so the rule uses whole-word matching: \b(intern|interns|internship|internships|co-?op|co-?ops|praktikum|praktikant\w*)\b. The data has no seniority field.

Each row is one job. Postings of the same opening on different sources are merged into one job, and posting_url links to an original listing. The job description text is not included. Pay, location and dates are copied as the employer published them.

Only postings whose source terms allow redistribution are included. Titles, employer names and pay are the employers' own words and numbers.
