PM Internship Scheme in Assam
Assam is the gateway to Northeast India and home to India's oldest oil fields — the Digboi refinery has been operational since 1901. Guwahati is the commercial hub of the northeast, with FMCG companies like ITC and HUL running major distribution networks that require large field sales teams.
Economic Overview
Assam is the gateway to Northeast India and home to India's oldest oil fields — the Digboi refinery has been operational since 1901. Guwahati is the commercial hub of the northeast, with FMCG companies like ITC and HUL running major distribution networks that require large field sales teams.
This economic backdrop makes Assam one of the more active states in the PM Internship Scheme, with companies across multiple sectors offering hands-on internship roles to young candidates.
