Internships

Explore the world of international business

CACTUS offers students the opportunity to roll up their sleeves; get first-hand business exposure in an international setup; and garner valuable, career-boosting work experience.

We offer exciting internship programs across our client servicing and marketing departments. Since 2002, we have provided students from countries like Japan, the Netherlands, France, Korea, Taiwan, China, Germany, Brazil, US and India with the opportunity to work on actual client assignments and use their theoretical knowledge to tackle the real world of international business.

We currently offer internship opportunities only in the India office.

Why CACTUS? Why India?
