2 months in Bangkok

Bangkok was an amazing experience. I had a great boss that catered unique projects to my skillset, because of this, I was able to learn a lot on the job. It was an awesome and unique experience, where I was challenged in various areas. I was able to complete complex tasks rather than clerical duties. For example, I was tasked with a research project regarding the implementation of blockchain in various industries, such as insurance and music. I studied its potential effects and how it will affect their financials. After this, I made financial models to value what the projects and companies would be worth today, such as a DCF model and NPV-IRR models.

On top of that, I was able to explore Bangkok and Thailand with Nexstep. We went to a lot of different places and ate a lot of good food - places I probably wouldn't have gone to on my own, but I am so glad I was able to travel to these places. Such as Ayutthaya and various small restaurants around Bangkok.

Bangkok is such a special place with incredible people. Everyone was nice and friendly, and all the food was delicious!

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
Exotic fruits - mangosteen and lychee. They are not very popular or feasible in America.

Awesome Experience

NSC did a great job in coordinating my experience while abroad in addition to connecting me to local companies from which I could choose to work from. This experience was the best of my life and it could not have been so great if it weren't for NSC. The staff did a great job of finding an interneship within their field, coordinating living arrangements at an excellent location, providing activities for our group to participate in throughout the summer, and addressing the needs of anyone in the program. Being a public health major, I was connected with a medical tourism company located in Bangkok. The majority of the staff spoke English and were very accommodating, so I was able to transition seamlessly into the workplace. I gained a great deal of experience throughout the program, and I would recommend them to anyone traveling abroad.

A Great Experience

NSC helped me to find the company for internship. It also arranged housing, transportation as well as activities for us. The internship was well-planned. It was easier for me to adapt to lifestyle of Bangkok. The staff were very helpful for answering my enquiries. I learnt more about Thailand from my job. I also had plenty of time to explore the city during weekends. It was enjoyable. My time in Bangkok was fruitful.

A valuable internship experience that ignited my passion

I loved the welcoming and supportive group of people that ran Next Step connections. Whenever I had questions about my internship or general questions about living in Bangkok, they were there to help. This program was also great at setting up dinners with companies, having speakers share their expertise, and hosting networking events for students to meet employers. Another bonus was the residence that NSC set us up with was super nice with lots of amenities and furniture. I’d recommend anyone who is thinking about going abroad to do it through Next Step! I was also extremely satisfied with the company they set me up with. I learned a whole lot about affiliate marketing and the Medical tourism industry, which wouldn’t have been possible otherwise.

What would you improve about this program?
Overall it was great. The only downside is that it was a bit costly, so perhaps lowering the burden students have to pay would be awesome.

From the housing to the transportation but also where to go, what to discover, NSC helps me to fully enjoy my internship and my time in Bangkok.

NSC helps me to begin my professional career and help me to create a professional network in South Asia. Always happy to help you, Jerome is an inspiring person.

Well-packed Two Months of Internship in Bangkok

When I took two months of intership in Bangkok earlier this June, I expect to get exposed to another face of Asian culture. Next Step Connections has been really helpful in facilitating and make sure that I get those cultural experience, while at the same time also challenge me to continuously improve my capacity as holistic learner. In short, I learn many things during the internship. And having it in Bangkok means that its not only during my working hours, but also everytime & everywhere in the city. Thank you NSC!
