My internship in Shanghai

My internship in Shanghai was the first time I experienced working in an international business environment, and it completely reshaped how I see my career. I was placed in a marketing role with a mid-sized company, where I worked on real campaigns and interacted with clients. The staff were always supportive, and I felt like part of the team instead of just ‘an intern.’ Living in China pushed me out of my comfort zone daily—whether ordering food in Mandarin or figuring out the subway—but that’s exactly what made it unforgettable. It was professional growth mixed with cultural discovery, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Doing an internship in China through GAC

Doing an internship in China through GAC was one of the best career moves I could’ve made as a student. I worked in a marketing team for a tech startup in Shanghai, which gave me real-world experience far beyond what I could get in class. The program staff supported me every step of the way, from matching me with the right placement to helping me adjust culturally. It was challenging at first, but by the end, I gained not only professional skills but also confidence in adapting to global work environments. I came back home with a stronger resume, but more importantly, a new perspective on my future.

Pros
  • Supportive team!
  • Interesting language lessons
