## AI overview

Jane Street explains how software engineering interns are matched with projects and teams. Project ideas come from prospective mentors, are reviewed by internship-program developers, and are selected for usefulness, early coding, and releasable milestones. Intern preferences about technical work, team dynamics, and other factors are discussed before placement.

## Source excerpt

Software engineering intern candidates often ask how team placement works and how much input incoming interns have over their teams and projects. We know team placement is an important factor for many students when deciding which internship to accept. We've spent considerable time and thought on this process in recent years and hope to demystify the experience with this post.
