What transcripts are needed for internship/job application?

Due to the time this past application cycle consumed, I suffered in a course. It is also an atypical course. I am hoping to get a B but it's possible that it will end up a C. I am admitted to a doctoral program and will be attending in the fall. And I am currently in a master's program in a different school.

I am wondering how much this master's level transcript will be used in the internship/job application process. Although I will try harder on this course, it just got me worried a bit. During internship application, do we submit only doctoral-level transcript or all transcripts since college? If so, how much weight do they give to transcripts/GPA? Will a C on a master's transcript affect significantly? If I end up having a C in this course, it will be the only C in all my graduate-level transcripts.

Thanks.

It's only been a year and a half since I applied for internship, but some of the specifics are already a bit hazy, so take this with a grain of salt. As best I can remember, all grad-level transcripts were required. Most sites didn't require undergrad transcripts (none of my choices did), but there are a few out there who do. Same goes for postdoc, although the number requiring undergrad transcripts seemed to be even lower than at the internship level.

One C shouldn't hurt your application much, if at all, especially since it will have occurred outside your doctoral program.

Some places will not want them at all, and some places will want every educational transcript from undergrad and up. Depends on the job.
