Show what you did. Prove what you learned.

Internhuddle's free candidate portal lets students and early-career job seekers build a reusable profile, apply to companies hiring interns and track applications. A completed placement can become a shareable Verified Internship Record: skills verified by mentors who worked with the intern, their feedback and named endorsements, a performance report and a verifiable certificate. Real experience deserves more than a CV bullet.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Internhuddle candidate portal really free?

Yes — completely. Creating a candidate account, building your profile, recording your intro video, browsing companies and applying are all free, with no premium tier and no charges at any point. Employers pay to run their programs; candidates never do.

How does one-click apply work?

You build your profile once: your details, internship preferences and a 90-second intro video. When you find a company you like in the directory, you apply with a single click — your profile and video are shared with that employer and land straight in their screening pipeline.

Which companies can I apply to through the portal?

The company directory lists employers on Internhuddle who have opted in to receive open applications. You can search it freely, and each listing shows what the company is looking for. New companies appear as they open their programs to the portal.

Can I track my applications after I apply?

Yes. Your candidate home shows every application you've made through the portal and its current status — in review, offer, hired or closed — so you always know where you stand without chasing anyone by email.

What should I put in my intro video?

Keep it simple: who you are, what you're studying or working on, and why you're excited about an internship in your chosen area. It's 90 seconds, recorded right in your browser, and you can re-record it whenever you want — the same video is used for every application.

Do I still need a candidate account if a company sent me a direct apply link?

No. Direct applications through a company's own apply link work without any account. The candidate account is for the open portal: it lets you reuse one profile across many companies and track everything in one place.

What should I know about screening before I apply?

The employer receives your profile and video, and AI may assess role fit and communication. Rules and screening thresholds can reject or shortlist without a person reviewing first. Contact the employer to ask about an outcome, correct facts or request human reconsideration; if you need help reaching them, email hello@internhuddle.com. Read the privacy notice before submitting.
