Internship reviews, by interns

Before you say yes to an internship, hear from the people who did it.

Interns review the companies that hosted them. Universities stand behind the reviews. Your name is never shown.

A real company page. The squares are the universities whose interns have reviewed it.

For interns

Two minutes. Five questions. The review you wish you'd had.

  1. 1

    Sign in with your university email

    That's how we know you're a real student. It's also the last time your identity comes up — nothing you write carries your name.

  2. 2

    Say what it was actually like

    Was the work real? Were the hours what they promised? Was someone actually supervising you? Did you feel safe? Did you learn? Then a few lines in your own words, if you want.

  3. 3

    It joins the company's page

    Once several interns from different universities have reviewed a company, its page goes live. One voice is a story. Several, independently, is a pattern.

If something serious happened

It goes to someone who can help. Not onto a page.

If you were harassed, exploited, discriminated against or felt unsafe, tick one box. What you write is sent privately to your university's placement office — people whose job is to act on it. It is never published. The company's page only ever shows that a concern was raised, not what or by whom.

And if the problem was really with the organisation that placed you rather than the company, say so. That goes to your university too, and stays off the company's page where it never belonged.

What a company page shows

  • 4.7Five scores, averaged. Substantive work, hours as agreed, supervision, safety, learning.
  • 82%Would they go back? The question that cuts through everything else.
  • Where it stood out on inclusion. LGBTQ+ inclusive, made disability accommodations, fair to international interns, paid — when two or more interns say so.
  • 1Whether concerns were raised. A count. Never the details.
  • What interns said. Short, honest, unsigned. Role and dates, not names.

For universities

Hear about a bad placement while your student is still in it.

Membership is free. Register your email domains and your students can review; your placement office receives what they choose to send you — serious concerns, and complaints about the organisations that placed them. You don't see their ordinary reviews. Students aren't being watched; they're being given a door.

For companies

Good hosts have nothing to lose here.

Your page shows what your interns said — numbers first, words second, nobody's name. Interns who were treated well say so, and it shows. Reviews are verified, so nobody can post about a company they never worked at.

Why “Ethos”

Character — and the trust you place in who's speaking.

Ethos is the Greek word for character. In Aristotle's rhetoric it's the one kind of persuasion that rests on the credibility of the speaker. That's the whole idea here: a verified intern, independently corroborated, is worth listening to.

It also stands for Ethical Hosting — the thing we're trying to make visible. How Ethos is run.
