Beyond Academy

I was in Seoul for 6 weeks with beyond academy and my experience was amazing, from the beginning with matching me to a company and all the way to my destination, beyond academy was so supportive, helpful and accommodating. When it came to the application, BA made sure I was set up with a company that matched my goals and aspirations which I really appreciated.

It was my first time flying so far from home and alone, but BA was always there to help and support with anything I needed. The days out with the co-ordinators and other interns were 100% the highlights of my time in Seoul! A huge thank you to all the Co-ordinators for being so kind and welcoming, they definitely made my trip a whole lot better. I can’t recommend this experience enough, if you’re thinking about it, I say just do it! It’s a great opportunity to learn more about your career journey and also a great place rich in culture and history! Thank you to Beyond Academy!!!

I came to Beyond Academy at the start of the second semester of my third year of college, and they efficiently partnered me up with the perfect internship that taught me so much more than I could have imagined. For students looking to pursue an internship abroad or who are looking for assistance, Beyond is a fine program that delivers and clearly cares about its students/interns. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity that Beyond gave me, and I would highly recommend this program to anyone interested in this line of experience.

I was matched with the perfect company and felt like I gained real career experience and connections. I was able to network, contribute ideas, connect with clients, and feel like a real team player. I was truly valued for my contributions and not just seen as inexperienced and given menial tasks.

As for Beyond Academy, they are with you every step of the way. Living in Tokyo is not easy, but the supportive coordinators are easy to reach out to if you have any questions from before you arrive and all throughout your internship. They also have fun social events for all interns a couple of times a week, so you do not have to worry about trying too much to look for others to spend time with. They also love hearing what kind of activities and events interns are interested in, so it's very easy to collaborate on having fun experiences together in Tokyo. The possibilities are infinite!

My internship experience with Beyond Academy was incredibly valuable, both professionally and personally. From the beginning, the program was well-structured and supportive, making the transition into a new work environment feel smooth and exciting rather than overwhelming.

One of the standout aspects of Beyond Academy is the level of guidance and mentorship provided. The team consistently checked in, offered advice, and created a strong sense of community among interns. This made a huge difference, especially being in a new city and navigating a new industry. Their workshops and career coaching sessions were particularly helpful in building confidence, refining my professional skills, and thinking more intentionally about my career path.

Through my placement, I was able to gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced, creative environment. I developed practical skills, learned how to collaborate effectively within a team, and gained insight into the realities of working in my field. The exposure to real projects and responsibilities helped me grow quickly and feel more prepared for future opportunities.

Beyond the professional side, the cultural and social aspects of the program were just as rewarding. Meeting other interns from around the world, exploring the city together, and sharing experiences made the internship even more memorable.

Overall, I would highly recommend Beyond Academy to anyone looking to gain meaningful work experience while also growing personally. It’s a great balance of professional development, support, and adventure, and it has definitely been a defining experience in my journey so far.

I chose Beyond Academy after careful review of what they offer and how they can support me both during my search for an internship spot and throughout my stay in Seoul. They were rapid in finding me the best spots possible, and helped me with prep and post interview placement, as well what to look out for when in Seoul. The team here in Seoul was also amazing, and always there to help me. I can only recommend them and say that they helped ease the entire process for me! A big thank you to Beyond!
