Information on Canberra Internships
Canberra is called a Large Country Town. Purpose-built since 1913, it’s the administrative and political heart of Australia, as it’s where the Australian Parliament is based.
Life may be quieter in Canberra than in other Australian cities such as Brisbane, Melbourne or Sydney, but it makes a great internship destination. CareerDC’s internship host companies are located around Canberra and do business in various industries.
