International Internships in Madrid with The Intern Group

I used my internship with the Intern Group in Madrid to help me secure a spot in my master's conversion course in Computer Science at the University of Bath - providing a stepping stone into helping me change to a field I desire.

My time on the internship was challenging but served as an impactful learning experience, instilling my love for software development. In turn, providing me clarification into switching from conventional classroom teaching, to now exploring the world of EdTech by making applications that can act as supportive classroom tools.

The social life in Madrid was nothing short of fabulous, on plenty of occasions I found myself enjoying not just Madrid but Spain in general with other interns that Lalita chaperoned. This included organised trips to Segovia, Toledo arranged by Lalita herself, as well as going on trips with my new found friends to other parts of Spain such as Valencia, enjoying the beach and authentic paella - not whatever they have in the UK.

In terms of recreational activities by myself outside of work, I also got the chance to pick up surfing for the first time, whereas in Bristol my options are more limited due to the comparative lack of public transport options.

The accommodation I stayed in had an excellent view whilst also being away from the city centre; I had the best of both worlds, I got to have fun at the clubs whilst being able to actually sleep off the hangover the next day!

The only drawback I can think of was that the accommodation we stayed in lacked air conditioning, however there was the option of buying a fan and sitting a bowl of ice in front of it. Being from the UK, this was only a slight issue as my plane tickets were a lot cheaper than my north american counterparts.

I highly recommend this internship to anyone if you value dipping your toes into new areas, especially if you're unsure on what to pursue after graduation. Additionally, if like me you stayed home during university, I highly recommend this internship opportunity as it will allow you to branch out and see what it's like living with other people - even if in the end you might not get along with them, but whatever there's tons of other likeminded people to meet.

In the end, when I got back to the UK all I could do was sigh and go "home shit home", would go back in a heart beat!

I had an amazing experience in Madrid, I loved my internship, got to live in the center of city, and met so many people from countries all around the world. While having the opportunity to work with kids through my internship and explore the city of Madrid were highlights of my time abroad, the excursions and events hosted by the Intern Group helped me form connections with people who shared my passion for travel, enhancing my experience beyond what I could have imagined. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in gaining internship experience in a new city or country. In my personal opinion, my internship allowed me to connect with people local to Madrid, making my experience more valuable than if I had only been taking classes.

Although my experience took place online, and I am living in Valencia I have had an amazing experience with the culture and community in Valencia. I have gone to some events with friends I have made out here and it has been great! Valencia is a beautiful city, and Spain is a beautiful country overall! I truly have enjoyed this entire experience! My supervisor was always easily accessible and very helpful! Her whole staff were very nice and helpful to me! I learning so much about the business side of the fashion industry during my internship.

I would recommend this program to anyone! It is incredibly safe, useful, and amazing to experience working and living in another country! I think it was everything and more!

This was a fantastic experience in Madrid. The intern group was a great organization to pick as my host. They ensured I was comfortable and listened to me whenever I addressed any issue. Upon coming here, I thought that my main purpose was my internship, however it's everything. It is about experiencing the culture—especially the cuisine, architecture, and nightlife—which Spain has in abundance, and meeting the people (who are incredibly nice, even to non-fluent Spanish speakers like myself) lol. Also, living and embracing another way of life was very eye-opening and informative. All of this, combined with the company I worked for, made up my internship experience in Madrid, and it was incredible. Finally, Lalita and Nikte are amazing women, and you couldn't be in better hands as you embark on this journey.
