What is the MKA Internship Program?

The internship begins in early June and concludes in mid-August. It is a way for college students to gain valuable real-world experience and build meaningful relationships with industry professionals.
Why Should I Hire a MKA Intern?
Every student applicant is vetted through a comprehensive screening process by the Sanat-O-Tijarat team. Applicants must display strong academic performance, professionalism, communication skills, and willingness to learn prior to being considered for the program. This is designed to be a competitive application process and not all applicants who apply will be selected. Employers will be introduced to only the brightest pre vetted applicants from around the country seeking to add value to your organization. You will have the opportunity to interview from our pool of qualified candidates and have full autonomy over your hiring decision. The national SoT team will work with you every step of the way to ensure you find the perfect intern, however you are not obligated to select and intern if you do not find a suitable applicant.
Do I have to Pay the Intern?
Yes. To gain the most competitive applicants, this internship is designed to be paid. The interns are required (if needed) to be on site and commit 40 hours per week. A minimum stipend of $375 per week over the 10-week period is required, although some partner organizations have opted to pay more. We ask that you compensate fairly for the effort and provide a livable wage considering housing, travel, meals, etc.
Why Become a Partner Organization?
Its simple, our goal is to support the next generation of Ahmadi Muslim students and professionals.
Hence, you should make yourself more proficient, and more capable, not only in your region but also in every SECULAR activity, every skill, and every profession. So much so that there is no field left in which the world can find anyone more competent that the members of Jama’at Ahmadiyya.
