I interned at London in fashion for 3 months.

It was a wonderful experience!

Initially I felt nervous, arriving at a new country where I knew nobody. But InternLondon made sure that I felt at home!

The program is really well structured, and allows you to meet many new people. Regular catch-ups ensures that you're always surrounded by people going through the same things as you. Paid events in the programme allow you gain the full London experience!

The accommodation was great, particularly because I lived close to my new friends.

Definitely an experience that I will hold on to for the rest of my life.

I only have positive things to say about The Intern Group. The program lived up to what was described on the website. The support and administrative team are everything you could hope for. The program provides a great environment to develop personally and professionally. How much you get out of it depends on your attitude and the effort you put in.

The best thing is the network you have access to and the friends you will make. I advise others to set out what they want from their work experience and talk to their employers to ensure they have the best chance of achieving work related goals.

I think everyone finds the first week challenging and will put most out of their comfort zone but that is why you do it. If you have the right attitude and make the effort your experience on the program will exceed your expectations. In the end I wish I could have stayed longer.

The experience i had in London through The Intern Group was one of the most valuable of my life. The process began slow for me, but once i was on the ground in London i quickly came to realize what a great opportunity i had just undertaken. The quality of the internship itself will vary. That is just the nature of it. I made friends with people who ranged from hating their internship to being indifferent about it to those like myself who loved it and found the job nothing but enjoyable. Given the unlikelihood that you do actually hate it, the staff in London are more than ready to help rectify the situation. The atmosphere with everyone in the program is very laid back, and in downtime on weekends or after work I found myself making lifelong friends with the great people I had the opportunity of living with. the Intern London staff are very welcoming, and Natalie did an impeccable job at organizing meetups and fun activities. Hands down I would do the program again. The internship I had was more than I could have hoped for in terms of work experience and setting myself up for my future after London. I've been back for almost two months and not a day has gone by that I don't miss the friends I made or the city I was privileged to call home for a while.

I had a truly wonderful and life changing experience in London. I thoroughly enjoyed my internship at a Central London global advisory firm, and it gave me exposure to the field of foreign affairs in a way that I would not have had otherwise. What I appreciate most about the programme was the fact that interns are given the freedom to experience the city on their own terms, while also having scheduled events where they can interact with others. I made many close friends over the course of my stay in London, and looking back I can say with full confidence that taking part in the programme was one of the best decisions I made in both my personal and professional life.

Doing an internship with the Intern Group in London has given me a better sense of professional and personal achievement. It has been a very effective way to launch my career, and I've made friends who I know I'll have forever. The program staff have been extremely helpful, (even if I've asked a billion questions about visas,or the TV not working properly) and I'd say that doing this program has definitely broadened my mind. I've learned how to network with contacts, gained valuable experience in my field of choice, and lived in one of the best cities in the world.
The most important thing anyone would be worried about while going abroad is support and help, and Intern London have done an amazing job of providing that. In my opinion, you learn so much more about yourself when you're in a new environment, and this is a great opportunity to do that as well as find where your career interests lie. Thanks guys!

I've spent 8 weeks in London doing an internship. It has been a very positive experience both regarding the job and the people I've met. I had the chance to learn a lot from my working experience and I also helped to organize three events with my managers.
I met a lot of new people coming from different parts of the world and I had a very good time.

I cannot help to think that I was lied to and cheated during my time with The Intern Group. The Intern Group seemingly appeared to be the outlet for myself to get the perfect overall experience abroad. It seemed as though I would be set during my time in London but it was all a facade to take students money and throw them into a foreign country all alone. We were left to survive in a very bad area being verbally harassed multiple times at all hours of the day. This made everyday activities such as going to work and grocery shopping very difficult.

One of the major reasons I decided to go with The Intern Group was the "active community of interns" which would "stay together in premier accommodation". I easily could have found housing and an internship on my own but I wanted the community of interns which I had been told numbers times that we would be living together. I, along with a handful of other interns, were isolated in a threatening area while other interns were placed in a slightly better accommodation as they promised multiple times on their website.

This left me to question where my money went. After asking how much it cost to live in Julian Markham housing in Elephant and Castle, I learned that it is just a fraction of the cost of what I paid The Intern Group. The disparity between the amounts of money that I paid for living accommodations compared to the other intern's accommodation was insurmountable.

I am grateful I thoroughly enjoyed my place of work or else I would have to call legal action against the scam of what is The Intern Group. Although this is what they may call an "experience", it is just a lie to cheat young students of their money. I strongly suggest you save your money and use it towards a legitimate organization such as Dream Careers or just travel on your own.

I had an amazing time with the Intern Group. My internship as a photographer with the Resident was top notch, and provided me with extremely professional experience that is very applicable to my field. I was very satisfied with the amount of "real world" work I was doing around the office, out on jobs and etc.
Any difficulties I came across were more welcomed challenges than anything, such as tough commutes or long days. Everything I experience in London has helped me grow personally ans as a professional individual.
Never before has a summer changed my life in such a large way.
