Intabroad

Why choose Intabroad?

We place students and recent graduates in paid internships over the summer and throughout the year with Spanish businesses in Barcelona, Madrid and Bilbao.

Our interns work closely with highly-qualified professional mentors in top Spanish companies across many fields, including engineering, logistics, marketing, human resources, IT, software development and more.

And when not at work, IntAbroad interns live and play in three of Europe's most vibrant cities: Barcelona, Madrid and Bilbao. We set interns up with immersion-style Spanish classes, or help them take a class or pursue graduate studies at a local university.

In Spain, IntAbroad interns can get the work experience and language skills they need to jump-start their careers.

Interns are placed with horrible companies

Intabroad was very helpful in finding me an internship. Although my first choice was Madrid and I only had interviews in Barcelona, I was willing to be flexible and am now happily living in Barcelona. I arrived in September and my company had FORGOTTEN I was coming. It turns out that Intabroad is not placing us with Spain's "top companies" but actually with barely functioning startups. My first company went bankrupt within my first 7 weeks of working there and I was left without a job. Intabroad was very helpful in trying to find me another internship and within 3 weeks I was employed again. As I obviously couldn't afford to be picky, I am now working at another startup where I am the only employee as a founder. If you are looking for experience in an actual company than this is not the program for you. If you are interested in the startup world than I would recommend this.

What would you improve about this program?
Get interns more interviews before they go so that they actually have a choice in companies. Be more upfront and honest about what kind of companies Intabroad works with. Maybe check out the companies beforehand? I should never ever have been placed at the company I worked at for my first 7 weeks as it was run by a drug addict and already going through bankruptcy proceedings before I arrived.

Barcelona Internship

It was always my dream to live in Spain and to learn Spanish and IntAbroad helped make that dream come true. They found me a really good company who were completely supportive and IntAbroad was always willing to help me with anything I needed. I was nervous that IntAbroad wasn't a real company and I was hesitant to use them but I am so glad that I did. I think for the price they charge and the quality of the internship they provide, there is no better option out there for internships in Spain. The only thing is that the internship they found wasn't for as long as they promised and the internship was a little farther from Barcelona than I expected but if you communicate openly with them and are flexible they are great to work with and always answer all your questions. Overall, I highly recommend them!

What would you improve about this program?
Easier access to call them via telephone

My best internship

I have done 4 internships in total and this was my best experience hands down. Working in Spain was a dream come true and I will never forget it. IntAbroad is very helpful in helping you find a job. It is very difficult to encounter one from the other side of the planet. But, they are with you every step of the way, before and after. They are awesome and they got me a job into the digital marketing field, something I always wanted to discover.

Get Placement Organization - Highly Recommended!

IntAbroad is a great placement organization for those who even lack the slightest skill of Spanish. They also managed to find a placement which suits my careers prospects (pharmaceutical/biotechnology). The hosting organization was very accommodating, and the people from IntAbroad make sure you are well-taken care off.

I will never forget it..I really enjoyed my internship in Barcelona. I could never bring myself to go back to Canada.

What would you improve about this program?
None that I can think of.

Best Experience of My Life

Going to Spain was the best decision I've ever made. I was extremely nervous and anxious, but Intabroad placed me in the perfect place. The one complaint would be that when I started the internship, I didn't hear much from them afterwards. But they did their job and found me the best fit for what I was looking for. I've learned so much and have grown from this experience and have made memories that will last me a lifetime.
