Internship Opportunities in China

I'm the Public Relations Director at Gi2C Group. I am also responsible for the majority of our North American recruitment. At a young age I developed a passion for entrepreneurship and technology. Throughout high-school and university, I worked for a number of young, energetic, and enthusiastic small businesses. While at university I participated in a student exchange program with Singapore Management University. Studying in Singapore completely changed my global outlook. It sparked my interest in Asia's diverse business and cultural landscape.

Five days after graduating with a BSBA in Accounting and Professional Writing from The Ohio State University, I boarded a plane bound for Beijing, China. I spent my first six months in China working as an education consultant at an international kindergarten before joining the team at Gi2C Group.

Safety and Support: Let's be clear, living and working in China is challenging. However, as with many life experiences, the most challenging can also be the most rewarding. At Gi2C Group, our goal is to put our interns in the position to succeed. This starts with providing a safe and supportive environment.

Opportunity and Understanding: We feel that China is ripe with career opportunities for motivated young people and we want to help others understand why. As the second largest economy in an increasingly interconnected and global world, China should be considered a premiere destination for students and graduates to gain valuable work experience. As many former interns have told us, an internship is what you make of it. Gi2C Group encourages all of our interns to approach their opportunity with a diligent enthusiasm and willingness to learn. This willingness to learn must go beyond what happens during work hours, it includes a desire to learn the language, interact with the locals, and appreciate the many cultural differences that make China such an interesting country.

Personal and Professional Development: Living and working in China will change you as a person, and it will change you for the better. Our internship program has been the catalyst that has opened doors to employment opportunities and professional development for hundreds of former interns. As more and more companies make moves to enter the Chinese market, the CV value of an internship in China continues to grow. An internship in China should be viewed as a personal and professional investment.
