Inkompass Global is the internship program of Philip Morris International, currently targeting students graduating in 2017 to give them a solid business experience of working on projects that help them go through a self-discovery journey while at the same time, building portable skills that they can use during their careers.

One important tip to keep in mind: if you’re interested in an internship whose submission deadline passed already, don’t let that stop you- contact the organization asap to see if they can make an exception for your completed application, which is more likely to happen than if they need to wait for you to fill it out.
You’d be surprised how often this works. Your extra step shows you’re extra-motivated to join them, and that passion can go a long way.
