Absolute Internship Reviews

This was an incredibly rewarding experience overall. I was able to build meaningful connections in both my professional and personal life, which made my time abroad even more valuable and memorable. It also gave me the opportunity to apply what I had been studying in a completely new and unfamiliar environment, helping me grow both academically and professionally. I gained confidence in my abilities and developed new skills that I know will benefit me in the future. This kind of hands-on experience has become more difficult to find in my city, where opportunities in my industry have recently become more limited, making this experience even more impactful.

Overall, the internship placement was very good, but the on-site program coordinators were terrible. The internship was in my area of study and provided a alot of professional growth, but the included trips left a alot to be desired. We were put in a hostel during one of our trips and were constantly nagged by the program coordinators if any of us broke a rule, even by one inch. We were constantly shouted at, and it created a tough environment. There was one coordinator who was respectful the whole time, but the others had an obviously poor attitude and should not be leading us, as it was most of our first time in Japan.

Overall, the program coordinator's attitude had a poor reflection of Absolute Internship and created a tense, zero-tolerance environment throughout the duration of the program. To Absolute Internship, hire coordinators with a good attitude. The crazy part is that there are very few negative reviews. I would advise using Absolute Internship only to be placed in an internship and do everything else on your own.

I absolutely loved my time in Spain. I was able to create lifelong relationships by experiencing this new culture with my fellow interns while simultaneously gaining work experience. It truly opened my eyes to the world and helped shape me as a professional and as a person. I would and have recommended it to a friend. It was life-defining and was one of the best times of my life. I truly believe everyone must take on an experience like this. Everyone must go abroad and immerse themselves in the culture.

My internship experience in Madrid through Absolute Internship was nothing short of life-changing and exceeded all my expectations. Professionally, my placement with a dynamic local company gave me real, hands-on responsibilities from day one. I was able to apply my academic knowledge to real-world projects, honing crucial skills in communication, problem-solving, and cross-cultural collaboration that I know will be invaluable for my future career.

Beyond the work itself, living in Madrid was an incredible adventure. The city is so vibrant, and the program's organized activities made it easy to connect with a community of fellow interns and fully immerse myself in the local culture. Exploring the city's rich history, enjoying the amazing food, and navigating a new environment built my confidence in a way I never anticipated.

What truly sets Absolute Internship apart is its incredible support system. From the pre-departure guidance to the on-the-ground assistance in Madrid, the team was always available, professional, and genuinely invested in our well-being. They made what could have been a daunting experience feel seamless and secure. This program provided the perfect blend of professional development and personal growth. I can't recommend it enough to anyone who wants to take their career and life to the next level through an international experience.

Singapore with Absolute Internship was a truly life-changing experience. The housing was incredible—fantastic building and amenities all on top of a mall! The convenience was unbelievable, and it was possible to get to most places in Singapore from the residence without stepping outside. The internship itself was so rewarding and developmental. My company balanced my work so well, ensuring I got all the relevant experience I could want while giving me plenty of time to explore Singapore. Absolute's team's communication was fantastic as well. At one point, I felt underutilized at my internship, so I reached out to see what I could do. Within a week, they had communicated with my bosses, and I was getting put onto more tasks, more leadership in my internship, and everything was incredibly useful and fruitful after that. The helpfulness of the staff, the facilities and resources Absolute offered, not to mention the amazing weekend trips and the experience of my internship, made me 100% confident that my decision was right—that Absolute Internship is truly the best abroad internship program out there.

Got placed at a horrible company at first but within a week was placed at a different company after telling the program coordinator what was going on. Extremely professional and understanding staff! The weekend trips and other events organised with the other interns are all extremely helpful in getting comfortable in your program location and it’s super easy to make friends! Definitely a good cv boost as an added bonus! I would recommend finding an internship by yourself as you can get compensated and witha couple years of university experience it should be very doable to find something, if you are a first year student or want to put in less effort this program is a great help. The alumni network is also very valuable

This internship was one of the greatest decisions of my life. Getting to meet all of these amazing people from all over the world and work closely with another culture for a few weeks was super enlightening and is an experience I wouldn’t trade for the world. The coordinators were super kind and helpful, allowing me to enjoy my trip and get the most out of my internship. I loved getting to travel around the city and outlying areas, the train system making transportation quick and easy. The food was also amazing, I totally recommend Latymer’s thai!

My Absolute Internship experience helped me learn more about different work cultures and how language barriers can affect the workplace. It also helped grow my time management and independent skills that can be used in the future. During the internship, I worked on several projects with my internship coordinator, and was able to learn many new skills. My placement coordinater, Bastien Kahn, was extremely helpful and flexible in finding an internship that was most suitable for me. Great experience overall!

My internship with Absolute Internship at Numi was a highly rewarding experience, offering hands-on involvement in meaningful projects like user segmentation, fundraising modeling, and retention analysis. The team was collaborative and supportive, giving me both autonomy and guidance, which helped me grow my technical and professional skills. While the fast-paced startup environment required quick adaptation, a more structured onboarding could further enhance the experience. Overall, it’s a great opportunity for students to make a real impact while learning in a dynamic setting.

The Absolute Internship team is very accommodating and helpful during the term of my internship. Whenever I had issues they'd reply as fast as they could and help resolve the issue quickly. I loved the energy of everyone I interacted with! It was truly an amazing experience being able to work with a company abroad while being remote. The program is perfect for people who want to do an internship abroad but may have certain circumstances that make it difficult to go abroad themselves. You also don't lose our on learning about the country the company is based in with all the helpful videos they provide.
