TikTok: does its intern - 2027 start and 2027 summer sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyIntern - 2027 Start and 2027 Summer (London roles in TikTok LIVE and TikTok Shop)

Unconfirmed. TikTok publishes no sponsorship policy for its intern - 2027 start and 2027 summer, so we cannot state a firm answer. TikTok's careers site lists London internships tagged 2027. TikTok Shop Operations runs summer internships (Business Development, Beauty and Fashion Business Development, Key Account Management, and Home and Living Account Management) that ask you to commit to 12 weeks in Summer 2027. TikTok LIVE runs longer internships, several starting January 2027 for six months full time, including LIVE Operations, Agency Operations, Music and Gaming Creator Operations, Creator Strategy, Strategy and Operations, Business Operations, Data Analyst and a Mandarin speaking Campaign Operations role with a four month minimum. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. No pay, visa or sponsorship information appears on the postings.

The catch: A January 2027 six month full time internship clashes with a normal academic year, so it usually only works as a placement year or after graduation. On a Student visa, full time work in term time is not allowed, so check your study dates before applying. The two application global cap applies to internships too.
