How important is it to have experience in your CV when applying for a summer internship in IB, how much importance do recruiters put on this? As with COVID a lot of myne got cancelled. I go to a target university in the U.K and have good grades.

Hi there,
Basically no need for experience, but would definitely say having Spring Weeks can help. Other forms of experience do help (you see a ton of Europeans with loads of internships at all summers) but for UK students who are still studying undergrad it's not that deep.
Thanks mate
my internship this summer got cancelled and I am going through recruiting for SA 2021. everyone’s been really understanding about it, so I am sure you’ll be fine.
