Program Reviews

If you’re contemplating doing it, just do it you won’t regret it! Met the most amazing people, made so many memories and learnt so much during my internship! The intern group organise everything, and make you feel so prepared! They walked me through the visa steps, found me the best placement and matched me with the perfect roommate! The intern group coordinator was incredible, doing weekly check ins, organising day outs and offering 24/7 service when we need it! Truely the best part experience

I had an unforgettable time during my 8 weeks in Madrid. From meeting other amazing interns to working at a firm that met my professional goals, I was able to gain new professional and personal skills that I will carry to the next stage of my life. There is so much to do in Madrid, filled with culture and amazing food. Lalita and Nikte were so helpful in ensuring we had a great time here with the events. It does get really hot in the summer but the experience is so worth it. Recommend traveling to other cities in Spain while you’re here!

Going to New York for an internship is one of the best decisions I have made. My workplace was really supportive, and the whole process from the interview to onboarding was smooth. Not only that but the amount of activities and fun you get to do within the city is incredible. And if i ever needed help at any time, my programme mentor responded to me very quickly. The lessons and online classes the intern group provides definitely help with your overall professional resume as well. I definitely do recommend

I had an incredible experience with the InternGroup in Tokyo. The staff was exceptional, providing continuous support and assistance in all aspects of my internship. My internship was equally fantastic; the company I worked for significantly contributed to my growth by enhancing both my skills and knowledge. Additionally, I thoroughly enjoyed immersing myself in Japanese culture, exploring the diverse food, and learning about the rich traditions. The whole experience was enriching and memorable, making my time in Tokyo truly amazing.

The internship was truly a one of a kind experience, In the 6 Weeks I was there I grew as a person worker and much more due to the cultural immersion and work experience I was luck enough to participate in. The Madrid intern group was there every step of the way and very helpful throughout the whole process.

Madrid is a beautiful city with tons of things to do no matter what your interests are, the food is amazing the public transportation is very accessible and easy to navigate.

Overall I had an amazing time made several great connections and would recommend this experience to anyone thinking of participating in an internship abroad

My program coordinators, Alisha & Erika were the absolute best. Everything under TIG was fantastic. Best internship I could have asked for and there were always fun events to attend through the intern group. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to do an international internship. I was an intern at an architecture firm for 8 weeks. The only thing I wish I could have changed is how far I lived from my office. The commute was tough at times but honestly I don’t have really anything negative to say.

The Intern Group was great in facilitating internships abroad! My destination trip was Madrid, where I stayed for 6 weeks, and I can't emphasize enough how life-changing the experience was. Lalita and Nikte were extremely supportive and ensured the needs of all interns were met.

Overall, I've made some amazing friends and got exactly the type of work experience I was looking for. If you're thinking of applying to build your resume or make long-lasting friends/memories, I highly recommend it!

I had such an amazing experience in Madrid this summer. I loved the company I was working for and I learned so much about my field, both in general and in an international context. It was super easy to make friends with other interns. The social events set up by TIG gave us the opportunity to not only explore the city and adjacent towns, but also build a community with other interns. I could not have been more satisfied with my experience and I would definitely recommend to anyone interested in international travel.

The experience itself was amazing - Madrid is an incredible city, especially for younger people.

First and foremost, the team at TIG is splendid. Extremely kind and supportive. As an intern, I felt like I barely took care of any logistics, as everything was taken care of for me, and any issues that I faced I was supported throughout. Big thank you to Lalita for all her help while I was here, when I needed anything. And also a big thank you to Nikte, event coordinator, who planned fun and unique events and was also there to listen if we needed any help. Truly enjoyed meeting both of them!

Transport system is great and extremely cheap compared to other cities (8 euros for a month of bus/metro pass). So much culture, art, food, dance, etc. In a city like this you really have to immerse yourself to live the best experience. So if you are someone that loves culture and exploring, you will love Madrid. Everything is so close if you live in the center, max 15 minute walk to almost everything.

Only feedback I would give to future interns is actually just a disclaimer - the summer here is very hot (but manageable, as it is dry warmth), and travelling outside of Madrid is at its peak in terms of how expensive it gets to travel in Europe!

Again, I would highly recommend and will look back at this experience with a sense of gratitude, not only for the professional skills and insights I gained but also for the amazing time I had in Madrid, meeting great people, learning new things, and growing personally.

My internship was a 6 month program in a non-TIG accommodation. The advisors were down to earth people, always available, and very helpful. My internship was an IT based one. I really enjoyed the company I worked at. All of my coworkers were very accommodating and I had a healthy work-life balance. Outside of the internship, there were many events that TIG hosted, including welcome parties for new Interns once or twice a month, going to landmarks in and around Tokyo, and outings to the nearby Kanagawa prefecture. I got along well with my fellow interns within the program and we also organized doing our own explorations of Tokyo. My only complaint is that the program fees are a little expensive, but if money is no a problem, I would whole-heartedly recommend this program to anyone looking to gain work experience in Tokyo or broaden their international perspective.
