    How to get in at Petco

    Securing an internship at Petco requires speed because recruiters often review applications as they arrive. Intern Insider sends an instant alert the moment a role matching your target is published anywhere, so you apply among the first, as early applicants get seen before the pile grows. This helps you avoid the frustration of submitting your materials to a full inbox. You can also improve your odds by connecting with the right people at the company. Intern Insider surfaces the recruiters behind the company roles so you can reach out directly to ask about the position or a referral, which materially improves response rates. It is a more effective strategy than waiting for a reply from a general portal.
