The Cabinet Office is looking for alternative opportunities for promising interns who would normally be fast-tracked into the government’s Fast Stream graduate scheme.
Fast Stream-run internship schemes for university students are continuing to go ahead, the Cabinet Office has confirmed, but with the government’s signature graduate-level leadership scheme cancelled next year, university leavers will have to look elsewhere for job opportunities.
People who complete the Summer Diversity Internship Programme – a two-month scheme for university students who are from an ethnic minority, are socially or economically disadvantaged or are disabled – can earn an accelerated route to Fast Stream selection.
