Internships in India are no longer just about “doing free work for experience.” With the rise of digital platforms, remote opportunities, and skill-based learning, internships in 2025 are transforming into career-building programs that truly prepare students and freshers for the job market.
Let’s explore how internships in India are changing and what freshers should expect.
Earlier, unpaid internships were common, but now companies realize the value of paying interns.
Stipends motivate interns to work sincerely and reduce exploitation.
Expect stipends between ₹5,000 – ₹25,000/month, depending on the industry.
Remote internships allow students from Tier-2 & Tier-3 cities to work with top firms in Delhi, Bangalore, or even international companies.
They save travel time and costs while improving digital skills.
Platforms like Job in India are connecting freshers to remote-first companies.
Employers now prioritize practical skills (coding, designing, marketing, content writing, etc.) over just qualifications.
Even if you’re from a non-IIT/NIT college, you can get internships if you have the right skills.
Certification courses + internship experience = higher employability.
Many companies are offering 2-3 days in office + remote work.
This helps interns experience corporate culture while enjoying flexibility.
More than 60% of companies in India are now hiring interns full-time after performance evaluation.
Doing well in your internship can directly lead to a job offer.
With globalization, Indian students are now interning remotely with companies in US, UK, and Singapore.
Adds global exposure and boosts resume value.
