Each job is unique and the demands on you as an intern will differ.  So, please think long and hard about how much time you have to put toward this and what you would like to get out of this internship.  Please check out below for an idea about each internship before you apply.  Also it is a good thing to remember that the fall, winter and spring internships you have to be at least a fifth year to be considered for the course.  Summer internships fourth years can apply.

The Ministry

The Ministry had the most slots open for interns.  You can find yourself in just about any department.  In Level One you could be running errands or filing for the minister/ministress themselves or in Level Nine being used as an experiment for something set deep in Mystery.  Other places you could be cleaning or being chased by a man eating rug.  All in all an average day in the Ministry of Magic.

St. Mungo's

At St. Mungo’s you will find yourself pulling shifts as the welcome witch or wizard.  You also spend a great deal of time cleaning and tidying up after the healers.  You will also get the chance to learn some spells and bedside manner from those who work in the hospital.  Its also a good way to see if you can handle being around those who are ill.

Holyhead Dragon Sanctuary

This is the most physically demanding internship and you had better like the outdoors.  You could find yourself with tasks such as tending sheep or cows to stacking hay or even making a meal.  It’s a community living type of place that relies on everyone doing their part.  You might even get to see some dragons.
