HP: does its placement year internship programme sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyPlacement Year Internship Programme (UK&I)

Unconfirmed. HP publishes no sponsorship policy for its placement year internship programme, so we cannot state a firm answer. HP advertises several Placement Year internships in the UK, including Office of the Managing Director, Commercial Channel Sales Support, Print Category, PS and Print Marketing, Channel Programs, Communications and UK&I PC Channel Sales, based mainly in Reading with some in London. The Office of the Managing Director role is a 13-month placement running from 1 July 2027 to 31 July 2028 for students currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree. The posting says applicants must be able to live and work in the UK, which is a right to work requirement, not a statement about sponsorship. No salary is printed.
