How should I prepare for my in-person interview?

The internships are open to all, but some require knowledge of the local language or native-level fluency. Interns are placed and employed under a local contract in the recruiting country.
Is there a minimum age requirement for applications?
Internships with STS are intended for students who have undertaken previous internships. Ideally, you are about to finalise your Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD thesis.
