The relocation assistance is administered through a third-party vendor who may also assist the intern/Co-Op student with finding a temporary place to live for the duration of their assignment at Skyworks.
Skyworks also provides a list of other vendors, who can assist interns and Co-Op students with finding temporary housing. Skyworks will not pay for any services rendered by these vendors. Any costs incurred are the responsibility of the intern /Co-Op student
