Internships are arranged by both the school and the company and are often the first moments of working life and the first work experience of the intern.
It comes highly recommended to carry out regular reviewing between the intern and his/her tutor (also called internship supervisor, or mentor) all along the time of the internship, as well as a written assessment at the middle of the internship.
You can find below a letter written by the HR department of the company together with the internship supervisor, assessing how well the intern has worked. The letter is to be submitted to the person in charge of internships at the school or university.
