Astro Unveils Internship Programme
Marking three decades of serving Malaysian households, Astro has introduced the Astro Family Internship Programme, a dedicated scheme available only to Astro customers and their eligible family members.
The initiative will give young adults hands-on, behind-the-scenes exposure at Malaysia's leading media and entertainment company, working with professionals across media, entertainment, technology and core corporate teams.
Christinne Lim, Chief Marketing Officer, Astro, said: "For 30 years, Malaysian families have welcomed Astro into their homes and made us part of their everyday lives. As we celebrate this milestone, we want to thank our customers for their trust and support by creating a meaningful opportunity for the next generation.
"We hope this programme gives young adults the opportunity to gain valuable real-world experience, discover their interests, and build the confidence to take their first steps into the working world. It is a gesture of appreciation to our customers, and an opportunity for the next generation to learn, grow and discover what lies ahead."
Running for three months with intakes offered between February and July 2027, the programme spans a wide mix of business areas, including Content, Marketing, Communications, Software Engineering, Data & Analytics, and corporate functions such as Finance, Human Resources, Legal and Procurement.
Participants will also gain a broader understanding of the content and media ecosystem and how Astro’s platforms engage millions of Malaysians across entertainment, sport, news and digital services. Beyond practical, role-based skills, the programme is designed to help aspiring talent explore interests, map potential career paths and develop capabilities suited to the workplace of the future.
