As a general rule, you're never going to go wrong by addressing someone formally. I would continue to do so, no matter how many times they address you by your first name. Unless, of course, they tell you otherwise. It shows a level of respect, and could possibly set you just one notch higher than the guy that's got the exact same qualifications as you.

I couldn't agree with this more.
Of course, once you GET the job/internship then you can move onto firstname basis. But in initial discussions you should always be polite and formal.
