Your real odds
Your competitiveness depends on which delivery organization you apply through, not on a single national pool.
The current cohort runs 2023 to 2026, so placements are actively available, and your actual odds shift based on which partner you approach and how much intern capacity they have left.

Worth knowing
The program runs through six delivery organizations with different sector focuses, so Pinnguaq targets Indigenous and remote communities while BioTalent focuses on life sciences, and picking the partner that matches your sector is the decision most applicants underestimate.
