FAQ: Internship Contract Template

  • Yes, an intern needs a contract that describes his/her working conditions, requirements, and the benefits they gain from their internship. Unless there is a declared consideration (equitable exchange of goods/money/services) it will be invalid, and unless there is a contract, there are no actual legal obligations between a company and an intern.

  • The easiest way to write an internship contract is to take a professionally made and legally binding template from a reliable provider like PandaDoc and fill the specific details. You can modify the boilerplate text as well, if it’s necessary. Alternatively, you can follow the template and write your own text or have an attorney create one for you.

  • An internship contract should include the placement of the intern at a specific department and/or with a specific supervisor, the obligations of the company and the intern, the compensation (if any) for the intern, working hours, potential employment conditions after the internship is complete, and a duration of the internship.
