Job Description

Learning begins in the classroom but there’s no better place to gain real-world experience than with Stantec. Interns are an integral part of our teams, working to solve some of the world's most complex challenges.

As an intern, you’ll work alongside our experienced practitioners and with our clients and communities. This hands-on experience will equip you with practical skills, build your network, and provide opportunities that set you up for success.

Join a team that has been partnering with our clients for more than 100 years to improve the quality of life around the world. When it comes to energy generation and transformation as well as water storage and conveyance projects, we design with the next generation in mind. We operate with the strength of a $3B company paired with the agility of a specialized dams group, to deliver some of the most iconic and cutting-edge projects around the world. This proud legacy has fostered a culture of innovation and safety, leading our team to design the world’s most impactful power and dam projects—projects vital to both local and global communities.

Your Opportunity

Stantec employs approximately 34,000 experts including engineers, consultants and construction professionals globally. As specialists in water and natural resources, Stantec employees use innovative ideas and technology to solve complex infrastructure and environmental challenges.

We are seeking qualified candidates for a Summer Engineering Internship to support the Energy and Resources business center as a member of the Hydro and Dams, geotechnical engineering group.

The Stantec internship program is a great opportunity for students to prepare for a career in engineering while getting paid. We provide real hands-on experience and project-related work opportunities to help students connect their studies into a new context - the business environment. It is an excellent opportunity to build relationships and learn from respected figures in the industry while gaining a better understanding of the big picture of things. Candidates that successfully complete the Stantec internship program are well-positioned to pursue further opportunities within the company.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
