Program Reviews

Being able to work in Madrid with Absolute Internship was a life-changing experience. I gained real-life working experience, met great people, tried great food, and got to explore an amazing city oozing with culture. I would recommend this program to anyone eligible 11 our of 10 times!! And there is so much to do! Absolute Internship does an excellent job taking all of the students on several trips throughout the country and they were all a blast! This program has something for everyone, whether it be foodies, history buffs, night owls, culture enjoyers, etc.

I had an incredible experience with the Absolute Internship program, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to gain valuable international work experience while immersing themselves in a new culture.

From the start, Absolute Internship provided a well-organized and supportive environment. The program’s seamless integration of internships with cultural immersion ensured that I gained practical skills and broadened my horizons simultaneously. My placement was perfectly aligned with my career interests, allowing me to contribute meaningfully while also developing a deep understanding of my field.

One of the standout aspects of the program was the emphasis on personal and professional growth. The support from mentors and program coordinators was exceptional; they were always available to offer guidance and feedback. Additionally, the opportunity to engage in various social and cultural activities, such as city tours and networking events, enriched my experience and helped me build lasting friendships with fellow interns from around the world.

Living and working abroad through Absolute Internship not only enhanced my professional skills but also improved my adaptability and global perspective. The program’s structured yet flexible approach allowed me to explore new places, try new activities, and gain a deeper appreciation for the local culture.

Overall, Absolute Internship exceeded my expectations. It offered a perfect blend of professional development and cultural immersion, making it a truly transformative experience. If you’re seeking an opportunity to grow both personally and professionally while exploring a new part of the world, this program is an excellent choice.

After applying to hundreds of internships over 8 months during my high credit load semesters, I was starting to lose hope that I would find an internship for this summer. I haven’t had any previous industry experience, so I was feeling pretty unlucky during my job search. One of my friends recommended Absolute internships to me, and after reaching out to them, I had a position within five days (interviewed, contracts signed, the whole nine)!

The internship was very cheap and matched me with a company that was just right for my situation. Even though there was just a week before the internship cycle began, they still matched me with a great company.

I recommend this company to anyone looking for a simple, quick, and quality internship experience. Loved them!

I had a great experience with Absolute Internship! You get what you pay for. My program coordinators, Marta and Tuti, were so helpful and nice throughout the whole process. We took fun weekend trips. I would be specific when they ask what kind of internship you want. I learned real world skills and have many connections now. I am happy I choose this program because it was better than the other ones I looked at. They were organized and I felt safe the entire time. This program is real, and worth it!

I absolutely loved the setting and responsibilities of my internship. Absolute Internship's placement allowed me to intern for a sustainability organization (which I want to study in college), largely in Spanish and supervised directly by the founder. This experience was incredible in helping me achieve my gap year goals, and I also met a wonderful international group of peers. Although I really enjoyed the experience of living in Barcelona university housing, my one complaint about the program is that our particular dorm was in a bad location in the city and didn't have good food.

Madrid was such a great place to study. Madrid is very big so there's a lot of different things to do. From parks, great food, people, fun clubs, and things to see. I had my own room with a gym in the basement, so I really coudnt have asked for better housing. I also was able to travel around Spain alot, for fairly cheap. Overall unforgettable trip

The places I would recommend are Tiki Taco, the Reina Sofía, El Retiro Park, a tour of Real Madrid stadium, Wow Hall, Icon, El Capital, Divorare sandwiches, any rooftop bar, brutal bar, and Tierra Burrito Bar.

The company was great. Had the possibility to really get the most out of this experience. Being in Paris also gave me the chance to improve french during my stay. I would suggest to do at least 2 month so as to be involved really in the company’s life. Therefore recommended! It builds your resume and leaves you enriched especially in terms of practice which sometimes is left aside in university. The process was very smooth, lots of advices about how to prepare for the interview and in general it was worth.

During my internship with Flavors of Paris, I took on various projects to enhance the company's outreach and operations. This included reaching out to partners to inform them about their inclusion in our product, collaborating on creating QR-coded cards to boost reviews and site reach, managing email marketing campaigns for subscriber engagement, assisting in invoicing with my boss Lisa, and providing hardware solutions. These experiences allowed me to develop a range of new skills that proved valuable in both the internship and my own business endeavors.

Absolute Internship paved the way for my career. I interned abroad two summers in a row, once in Paris and once in London. My second internship really opened new doors for me in my field and I was even brought to Paris to on a business trip where I was able to make life-long references. I am now working at Saint Laurent, a job I wouldn't have been hired for it it weren't for my prior jobs found through Absolute! I am forever grateful for them! I made many friends, memories, and grew into a true adult from the experiences I had.

Visiting Seoul in June with Absolute Internship was my first experience on a university programme abroad. I was apprehensive at first as it was my first time going so far away by myself, but I must say it was well worth it. I made so many friends from all around the world, got to experience traditional work culture within a Korean company, and go on amazing trips outside of Seoul as well. As a Korean/French language student, it was good to see what prospects could await me once I have finished my degree. The workshops also helped me gain some valuable experience in improving my working portfolio on sites such as LinkedIn, so I feel ready to take on an international career should I choose to in the future. 10/10 would recommend!
