Great experience!

InternNZ helped me get an internship in NZ within a very short amount of time and I am very thankful for their work and cooperation!

Bob has been a great help throughout the process of finding an internship and I was lucky to match with my first option. The internship has been a lovely experience and I would recommend NZ (Wellington specifically) to anyone, especially young people/students.

The housing provided was a bit poor but has all facilities that are needed. I would recommend trying to find a different place if you can but if you're on a tight schedule like me it will do!

Great international internship experience

My internship experience in New Zealand was unique. I could develop a new practical and marketable skill and got more practical working experience in my field of study. Furthermore i could improve my (technical) business English through daily team meetings with coworkers and my supervisor as well as my overall ability to understand and communicate in English. Additionally i could do some international networking and also i made new friends from different countries in Europe and New Zealand. I did the internship in Wellington, which is a great city for a lot of fun activities. I had a great time in the nightlife and also could go out to different restaurants and bars during the week. As a fan of Lord of the rings i could see some famous und special film locations based around Wellington. Also i could do amazing tramping tours in the stunning nature nearby Wellington so far. I am satisfied i did this international internship and i am looking forward for the upcoming backpacker travel adventure through New Zealand and other countries close to it.

Pros
  • Developing intercultural experiences
  • Improving my (business) English and developing a new practical skill
  • Growing as a person by leaving the comfort zone and getting to know new friends
Cons
  • It costs a lot of money and i didn't get paid during the internship
  • The weather can be very windy and rainy sometimes
  • The apartment was sometimes a little bit cold because the heating didn't work so good

InternNZ found me an internship from across the world

As part of my education at an IT college in Croatia, I was required to do an internship for a company and use what I'd learned. InternNZ made it possible to do so in New Zealand, allowing me to both finally see the country for the first time and spend the internship with my family. InternNZ provided me with several options and didn't give up on finding me the ideal internship until I was satisfied, and the friendliness and patience of the staff in this endeavor cannot be overstated. If you are looking for an internship in New Zealand, no matter where you're coming from, give InternNZ and its talented staff a try.

Internship

Working as an intern is great opportunity to learn professional skills. You can put your academic knowledge on practical and field based operations. I think every student should think about to take a internship program in between or after their studies to grow better and faster. Through internship you can get professional references from your workplace to make a fancinating resume and it's also a good opportunity to connect with people who are well experienced in your specific field. At the end I want to say all the best for future interns.

A great platform for students to apply their skills in real working environment.

Its been a great experience with intern NZ in terms of finding me a suitable internship in wellington. I was amazed at their response time in terms of arranging interviews for me. I got my first interview within one week and fortunately, I got selected with a firm which is related to my studies. While I am writing this review I almost completed two months with this company and so happy to see my growth within a short period of time. Another important thing about Intern NZ is that they check on us regarding the working environment and our well being throughout the internship days, that makes Intern NZ a good choice. Inter NZ is active on several social media platforms and makes it easy for people to connect and improve their contacts while we are here in a new place.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Be safe and enjoy life. It will be an amazing experience to test your skills.

What a life-changing experience!

I am absolutely overjoyed that I chose to do my internship in New Zealand and work with Intern NZ. For my internship, I was able to work with a dance studio in Wellington and do everything from dance studio management to teaching my own classes. The dance studio that I worked for truly welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like a part of the dance family from the very beginning. I feel like I have grown immensely as a person and as a dance teacher these last three months and I am very excited to bring my experiences back to the United States. I've had the chance to travel to places like Kapiti Island, Napier, and Taupo during my time here and I have gotten to explore so much in Wellington. The people I have met along this journey will forever have a lasting impact on my life and I will always feel like a have my own kiwi family in New Zealand!

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
My friend and I met some friendly scuba divers who convinced us to try the inside of a sea urchin they had caught. It wasn't my favorite food, but it was such a memorable and funny experience!
