Questions and answers

Getting started

What is Prefessional?

A platform where school students find internships, track their applications and prepare for them with a plan. We gather internships in one place and check the conditions against the official source.

Who can use the site?

You can sign up from age 14. Most internships are for ages 14 to 18 — each one shows its exact age range.

Does it cost anything?

No, the site is free. The internships are free to take part in too, and some are even paid — see the “Pay” field.

Internships and applications

How do I apply?

You apply on the organisation’s website — use the “Apply on the website” button on the internship page. Here you mark that you’ve applied and follow the status.

What happens when I press “Save”?

The internship appears in “My tasks” as an application, and we build a to-do list for you: prepare a CV, write a letter, take a test, submit the application — each with a date before the deadline. You can edit, reschedule and add tasks.

How does an application’s status change?

When you tick off the first task, the status becomes “Preparing”, and after the “Submit the application” task — “Applied”. From there you change it yourself: “Under review”, “Interview / test”, “Offer” or “Rejected”.

Why does an internship say “From age 16”?

That’s how we mark internships that don’t fit your age. We don’t hide them: sometimes it’s worth preparing early and applying next year.

How accurate are the conditions?

Every internship shows the date it was checked and a link to the official source. If the organisation’s website says something different, trust the source.

Plan and calendar

How do I add deadlines to my calendar?

Settings has a “Calendar” section: add the link once to Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar, and deadlines and tasks will show up there by themselves.

Can I add my own tasks?

Yes. In “My tasks”, pick a day and type the task. Tasks for an internship are added on its page, along with subtasks and their order.

Account and data

I forgot my password

On the sign-in page, press “Forgot your password?” and we’ll send you a link to set a new one. You can also sign in without a password, using a link from an email.

How do I change my name, email or password?

In your profile, under “Account”. You’ll need to confirm a new email address via the link we send.

How do I download or delete my data?

Your profile has “Download my data” and “Delete account”. Deletion is real: your account, applications and plan are erased from the database.
