Explanation:
trainee: pasante
(Please note: for "pasante" there is a connotation that the position is an internship as opposed to an apprenticeship)

For "vacation trainee", in this case I would suggest "pasante para las vacaciones". Other possibilities include "pasante para las vacaciones de verano" or "pasante para el verano", ONLY if the document is to be distributed in the same hemisphere in which the source document was written.

I hope this helps...
