Student and Trainee Programs at Sophos

When highly talented people work together in an environment where they can do the best work of their careers, amazing and successful companies are built. Here at Sophos, our new graduates and internship programs are dedicated to cultivating the next generation of talent across all of our different teams and departments.

Our programs offer individuals the opportunity to gain real-world experience and develop their skills working alongside some of the best and brightest team members. Internship roles include Threat Analysts, Software Engineers, Marketing, SophosLabs, and SDRs.

Sales Development Representative Intern Program: Typically, nine weeks from March through May where students study Monday to Wednesday and work at Sophos Thursdays and Fridays. We usually take on two to four SDR Interns at a time, with two permanent positions available at the end of the Internship. Interns can interview for a full-time permanent role at the end of their college degree. Many of our SDR Interns are still at Sophos. 

 

Co-op Program: This is with our ESG and NSG Development groups. Co-ops can work for the winter or summer term while studying. Typically, these co-op placements are for either four months or eight months - students choose the duration based on whether they want to take another semester off studying to work (and get paid) or go back to college to finish their degrees faster.  

 

Technical Support BCIT Graduate program (CISA course – Computer Information Systems Administration): We have a lot of BCIT students that came through this program working in our Technical Support Group. The latest session held was in April 2021.

Sabah Saddiq, Software Engineer, Development, Abingdon

I’m a Computer Science graduate. I secured a placement year with Sophos during my degree, which went really well, and which is why I returned as a Software Engineer. The placement year was a great opportunity, and I couldn’t have asked to start my career with a better team; everyone was always ready to help making the steep learning curve a lot less painful. I was always being mentored by my development team, who I could approach at any time. Despite the daunting challenge of working on real projects that would be released to customers, it was a great learning experience and being treated as real employees gave a genuine insight into how a career in this industry will look like. The onboarding as an intern was very smooth. My manager was excellent throughout the year; during our fortnightly one-to-ones we would discuss current projects, my progress and work together in setting goals for my improvement. Overall, Sophos is a positive, nurturing, and inclusive work environment.
