The primary qualifications for getting a QA tester internship are enrollment as a student at an accredited college or university and the ability to meet the minimum requirements for the internship. This varies by company, so you need to talk with your school or write directly to a company to get the full list of requirements. Many companies ask for things like certain GPAs or enrollment in specific programs at the school. If the company takes recommendations, be sure to ask your school what you can do to earn their recommendation. Fulfilling the duties and responsibilities of a QA tester intern requires communication skills, attention to detail, and some familiarity with the type of products or software that the company tests.
