What can you gain from the internship?
Beyond the specific technical skills of each position, working in an automotive R&D environment can give you the opportunity to:
- Work on real engineering problems: Apply what you have learned at university to projects connected to actual vehicle and propulsion-system development.
- Learn from experienced engineers: Work alongside technical teams and understand how engineering projects are developed in an industrial environment.
- Build in-demand technical skills: Develop practical experience in areas such as batteries, AI, simulation, testing, power electronics, data analysis or mechanical design.
- Understand the development process: See how engineering concepts move from modelling and simulation through testing, validation and industrial development.
- Build your professional network: Collaborate with engineers and technical experts while developing connections within the automotive industry.
- Full time CDD/CDI: Possibility of converting the internship to a regular job after graudation. It will depend on the market condtions, available opportunities, internship performances, skills, etc.
Things to keep in mind before applying
- Check the individual job listing before applying, as eligibility, educational requirements, location and other conditions vary between positions.
- If you find a position that matches your profile, don’t wait until the last minute.
- Read the job description carefully, check the required educational level and technical skills, and adapt your application to the specific position.
- French language skills are very important for automotive roles in France, Most teams operate predominantly in French. So being comfortable communicating in French can make a significant difference in your day-to-day integration and collaboration.
- English is required while collaborating with colleagues outside France.
- A clear, concise one-page French CV is very important aso a good starting point for your application. Highlight your relevant technical skills, academic projects, software/tools you know and any previous engineering experience.
