Program Reviews

Absolute Internship was the best way for me to get comfortable traveling abroad. It gave me the opportunity to grow personally and professionally in ways I never expected. I had an amazing time getting to know people from all around the world, seeing iconic landmarks, and becoming fully immersed in the rich and diverse culture of the United Kingdom. Each day offered something new, from exploring historic sites to trying local cuisine and connecting with people from different backgrounds. I would highly recommend Absolute Internship to anyone who is ready to step outside their comfort zone, try something new, and experience what it truly means to live and work abroad. This experience gave me the confidence to navigate unfamiliar environments, adapt to new situations, and embrace the challenges and joys that come with international living. It’s a journey I’ll cherish forever and a step I’m so glad I took.

I highly recommend Absolute for anyone considering an international internship experience! My internship in Lisbon, Portugal, was incredibly enriching. I made lifelong friends through work, immersed myself in Portuguese culture, and got to see countless amazing places.

Lisbon itself is a fantastic place to live and work, with its unique blend of city life, beaches, nightlife, rich history and culture, and beautiful natural scenery. The people here are warm and friendly, and I felt so welcomed everywhere I went. I wish I’d known more Portuguese before coming, but I picked up so much during my time here!

Navigating the city was easy, thanks to its excellent public transportation system, which made it simple to explore Lisbon and beyond. Absolute went above and beyond to organize cultural activities and trips, adding so much value to our stay and helping us feel at home in this amazing city.

The Absolute staff was also very accessible, always available to discuss any questions or concerns. They even organized mixers where we could connect with coordinators and fellow interns, which helped us build relationships and made our experience even more enjoyable. If you're considering an international internship, I can’t recommend Absolute and Portugal enough!

The company and the people was the best thing about my experience I met so many amazing people in Japan and created such special bonds with everyone! I could not begin to describe how rewarding the whole experience was. As a Computer Science student at "Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education" I worked at "Irvine Systems" company in Tokyo from August 2024 to Decemeber 2024 I found this opportunity through the internship agency "Absolute", it was so much fun, I learned a lot of things, developed new skills, grew as a person, and made many great friendships while I was there. So many memories that I will treasure for the rest of my life. Japan has such a unique and authentic culture and getting to experience it was amazing!

The beginning of my journey abroad was filled with adjustments. Entering new environments had its fair share of challenges. Navigating how to allocate time for myself, enjoying the company of new friends and settling into my internship all required a balance to be struck.

Although this time abroad was a step out of my conform zone, it has allowed me not only to gain experience in the non profit field but also grow on an individual level. I have had to the chance to disconnect to learn more about myself and how I may begin to picture my future. I have had the ability to grow a more profound appreciation for life and all the little moments it has to offer.

This opportunity has granted me to gain insight into the working of the Housing First Project and the remarkable work it yields. I have had the chance to be welcomed into the Crescer organization even if it was just for a short time. A team of passionate and driven individuals who have truly been an inspiration to me. Most importantly, I have had the privilege to have gotten to know the people participating in the project. They have welcomed me not only into their homes but also into their hearts.

An unforgettable experience that wouldn’t be possible without the Absolute Internship Company. Their guidance helped immensely with the adjustment as well as facilitating opportunities to explore the beauty that Portugal undoubtedly has to offer.

During my one month internship in Barcelona, I met amazing people, friends for life !! I was scared of not finding friends to have fun with, doing all of the activities… but it was quickly resolved ! I found amazing friends, we’re still in contacts every day even though we don’t live in the same country … Also if you’re scared because of the language don’t be ! I was the only French person in the program and everything went perfectly. You get to talk about the different cultures, mentalities…. It is actually really fun and plus you get to improve your English (and learn American or British slang ;)). You can meet people from the entire world : Mexico, London, India, Italy, United States.. and we’re all here to have an amazing experience, and make the most of it !!

Went here during my gap year, with no clue on what was out there in the world or what to expect. I learned SO much from this, from my career field to working in a team, managing tasks and meeting new people. The office was stunning, and Absolute Internship was always there to help and checked in too. I came back with a new sense of understanding, belonging and more. Truly a good experience for those who want to learn more about their field, themselves and even just have fun in general! Thank you so much Absolute Internship!

Absolutely loved my experience with Absolute Internship in Madrid! As a finance student at UGA, I was eager to dive into something that went beyond the classroom, and this program really delivered.

Living in Madrid was a blast! I not only got to work in a dynamic business environment, but I also picked up a ton of cultural insights that align perfectly with my interest in International Business. The internship allowed me to apply what I’ve learned in school to real-world situations, which was super rewarding.

Weekends were the best part—traveling with other interns to cool spots and even taking a train to the beautiful coast of Malaga was unforgettable. It was a great mix of education and fun!

Overall, this internship was a game changer for me. I gained valuable skills in international finance, improved my cross-cultural communication, and built an awesome network of contacts. This experience has definitely set me on a path to thrive in our interconnected world!

My internship in Madrid was such a transformative experience. I studied International Relations & Global Studies in undergrad and worked at a local non-profit organization in Madrid that supports those who have been displaced due to economical crisis, addiction, or other causes. Working here helped me grow as a young professional while also getting to make meaningful change in people's lives. Additionally, I made some of the greatest friendships and memories through my internship at Absolute while also getting to travel around Spain!

I had an amazing summer thanks to Absolute Internship, who organized my fintech internship at Pand.ai in Singapore. From the start, they made the whole process super easy and stress-free. The Absolute Internship team was always there to help, whether it was sorting out the details and housing or making sure I was settling in well.

The internship itself at Pand.ai was a fantastic experience. I got to work on some really cool projects, like developing scripts for AI chatbots and building a financial model to tackle some big cost challenges. It was a great way to put my skills in Python, Kubernetes, and MongoDB to use in a real-world setting.

But what made this experience truly special was everything outside of work. Absolute Internship organized plenty of networking events, city tours, and cultural activities that helped me make the most of my time in Singapore. I met awesome people from all over the world and got to explore a vibrant new city.

If you're looking to gain some valuable work experience while having an unforgettable adventure, I can’t recommend Absolute Internship enough.

I was dreaming about going to South Korea for a while now, but it seemed very out of reach. I found about Absolute Internship at the abroad opportunities fair at my univeristy and i am extremely happy about it! They helped with EVERYTHING! They looked for the company and helped with CV preparation and interviews. They answered all the questions and replied in a timely manner. A huge plus was that they found a place to stay (modern apartament in central Seoul with just a perfect location!). Also the transportation cards were included, which was super helpful as well. There were trips and activities when you arrrive and there are people from Absolute the city making sure everything works fine for you, who you can easily reach out to for the support. The program gives you this feeling of independence, because you are there working on your own, at the same time there are other interns that you meet and do stuff together as well, which helps you create that feeling of belongingness. Why 4 not 5 stars? The internship is kinda pricey, if your university does not fully sponsor you. I know that it costs a lot to hire everyone to help with the process but still ;) Nevertheless it is worth it to try and go intern abroad!
