How to get in at Roche
Landing an internship at Roche requires a proactive approach because the volume of applicants is high. Intern Insider sends an instant alert the moment a role matching your target is published, so you apply among the first. Early applicants often get seen before the pile grows, which is a significant advantage in a competitive search. You can also use Intern Insider to surface the recruiters behind Roche roles so you can reach out directly to ask about the position or a referral. Reaching out to a human contact rather than just submitting your resume into a queue materially improves response rates. It is a simple step, but it helps you stand out from the crowd.
