(THE POST MILLENNIAL) – Meta has terminated its prestigious London-based internship program just days after CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company has frozen all hiring in preparation for its first ever downsizing.

The interns who were supposed to start in their highly sought-after positions in January 2023 received emails notifying them of the decision, reported the New York Post. The unexpected news left some of the intern hopefuls in difficult positions, as they had turned down other offers to join Facebook’s parent company.

“I changed plans and discarded another offer for 2023 due to this offer,” wrote Yure Pablo, a Brazilian computer science student, in a LinkedIn post. “So if anyone can help me with [other] opportunities for the next year, I would be glad to apply.”
