Internship Ad Template

What should an internship ad in the Gulf include so strong students apply?

An internship ad for Gulf employers with the duration, schedule, stipend, real projects and what interns will learn — in English and Arabic, ready to post free as an internship.

How the internship ad is built

The ad starts with the role, company, city and work model, then a short block students can check in seconds: duration and start date, schedule, and who can apply. 'What you'll work on' and 'What you'll learn' come next, one bullet per line — real projects, not 'support the team'. 'What we offer' shows the monthly stipend, the completion certificate and reference letter if you offer them, and any other perks. Visa terms and how to apply close the ad. It's posted to MenaJobs as an internship at entry level.

Stipend
A fixed monthly payment to an intern, usually lower than a salary.
Training permit
The labour-ministry permission a non-citizen student needs to intern, e.g. MOHRE's student permit in the UAE.
Learning outcomes
The skills an intern should have by the end — what they'll put on their CV.

Before you post it

  • Fill in the stipend — the placeholder stays highlighted until you do.
  • List real projects. 'Assist the team' is the line that makes strong students skip an ad.
  • Check the work or training permit the intern will need before you make an offer.
  • This is a template, not legal advice.

Frequently asked questions

What should an internship ad include?

+

The duration and start date, whether it's full-time or part-time around classes, who can apply (for example final-year students of a named subject), the real projects the intern will work on, what they'll learn, the monthly stipend and anything else you provide, such as a certificate, reference letter or transport allowance. Strong students choose between internships on the projects and the learning, so those two sections come first.

Should internships in the Gulf be paid?

+

Paid internships attract far more and better applicants, and a stipend lets students from every background apply, not only those whose families can support them. The template leaves the stipend as a highlighted placeholder until you fill it in. Whether a stipend is legally required depends on the country and the intern's status, so check with your HR or PRO team.

Does an intern need a work permit?

+

Usually yes, if they're not a citizen. In the UAE, MOHRE issues student training and employment permits; other GCC countries have their own permits or training programmes. Interns on a family residence visa still generally need a permit from the labour ministry before they start. Confirm the exact permit with your PRO before you make an offer — this template doesn't replace that check.

How long should an internship be?

+

Most Gulf internships run for 1–3 months over the summer or 6 months as part of a degree. Pick the length that lets the intern finish at least one real project. The template states the duration and start date in the first section so students can match it to their university calendar.

Can I advertise an internship for Saudi or Emirati students only?

+

Yes. Choose 'Nationals preferred' under visa and the ad words it for the country you pick. Saudi employers can also look at HRDF (Hadaf) programmes for training Saudi students and graduates, and UAE employers building an Emirati pipeline can check the Emiratisation calculator.
