Yes, I recommend this program

An experience well worth the sacrifice!

I went to this internship with another collague of mine, both of us arranged crosstraining internship trough several departments. My collegue was for a month in F&B as room service attendant which was really exsausting and he didn't have a chance to learn a lot, however he was noticed by the management and they respected their deal which was made on the begining; and after one month transfered him to the reservations department and now he is really learning and is satisfied. As per me, I am at front office (including reception, telephone operator and concierge). I will stay here one more month cause the computer system and all FO duties are too wide and complex to be handeled in one month period. I am happy in this department but at the begening I didn't have an assigned trainer so my learning procces was longer simply because my collegues didn't have time (due to high occupancy of 90+ %) to show me everything slowly.Right now, both of us are working equally as other staff members so I can say we are appriciated here. All the managment and the staff are really welcoming and helpful so we feel comfortable. Basically everything is great except the accomodation! We were extremy surprised when we saw where we will be staying.. We are living at the boundries of Dubai in Dubai Investment Park, 45 min-1 hour away from the hotel. Living conditions are bad, 4 people in a small room, only one bathroom on the floor that is used by 50 people. Everythig very old, water is boiling hot, and in both of our cases, bathroom is cca 50 meters away. However, as soon as we report a problem, our management is working really hard towards fixing it. So all in all, all compliments to the Ramada Downtown Hotel people but the accomodation is simply horrible. Now, like all the staff, we are use to it but maybe this should be mentioned before. All in all this is an experience that will determine my career and in the future can bring me only positive benifits! After finishing university, this internship was the best decision that I have made, no matter how hard and challenging it sometimes is!

What would you improve about this program?
Simply giving better information about the accomodation cause in my case, it showed to be a big dissapointment. Maybe some people would even give up if they were offered to live here. But every company, different accomodation.

Response from Worldwide Internship

Hi Marija, we appreciate your honest review. Your comments are really important to help us improve the experience of next students coming to the UAE. We talked to the GM of the hotel confirmed that they have the same living conditions for everyone and have plans of providing better living conditions for all staff.

On our side, please receive our sincere apologies, unfortunately it is something we can´t control.

We’re really happy that even with this matters, you’re having a great professional experience in Dubai.
