Madrid Internship

Choosing to do an internship in Madrid is one of the best decisions that I have made. I did a 6-week internship and my only regret is not doing it for longer! I was given the opportunity to really immerse myself in the company and I even got invited to attend an exciting company event. I have not only gained key industry experience but I have experienced huge personal growth. I am so thankful to the Intern Group program team in Madrid as they supported me throughout the program and made me comfortable during my time there. There were lots of fun organised activities every week which allowed me to meet new friends and expand my network with people from around the world. Madrid is an amazing city and I would definitely recommend the program to anyone wanting a new adventure!

Madrid internship

I couldn't wait to go to Spain for my internship. I was part of the digital nomad program, which means I did all the work remotely and I had the opportunity to do it in a city I really wanted to visit. I spent a lot of time learning Spanish in order to prepare for my visit and I wasn't disappointed. I experienced new cultures, new food, new adventures but also new friendships. My internship was very interesting on its own as I got to work with a company that I loved and that taught me so many things. If I got the opportunity I would do it all over again. I thank the Intern group - Madrid program for their quick response each time I had an inquiry, Lalita and Lucia were very helpful and made the experience even more enjoyable. Hala Madrid!

Pros
  • Tourism
  • Experience new food
  • Meet new People
Cons
  • It can be extremely hot depending on the season you visit but its still beautiful
  • If you dont speak a little bit of spanish it can be difficult, not everyone speaks english or french

Internship in Madrid

Living and working inMadrid was one of the best experiences I’ve had. I had the most incredible time working during my internship and met amazing people along the way. This program not only pushed me to get out of my comfort zones and grow but also have the best time while doing so. Would definitely recommend if you are thinking about working abroad! The Madrid program also offered fun meet ups to get to know other interns and explore a few cities around Madrid which was very helpful in getting to know our new city.

Environmental protection

I had such a great time doing the internship last year and made so many great memories and learned so much. Everyone I talked to to get into the program was very helpful. The trips and events that the program had were always a lot of fun. I got to research environmental protection impacts and see if they could be implemented around Spain. It was a learning experience to be able to work with so many people with different backgrounds. I am currently working full time for an environmental construction company using what I learned in Madrid in my workplace.

Madrid Internship

I loved everything about the program. As an international student, I was so nervous about my arrival and meeting new people. But everything about it was great, I feel like I’ll never forget this experience and I am so thankful for the amazing relationships that I made. I learned so many things and Madrid is one of the best cities in the world. I recommend this program without any doubts, and if I could, I would repeat it a thousand times. Eternally grateful for the opportunity and the experience that I gained! <3

Madrid Internship

Living in Madrid for the past two months has been the best summer of my life! When I first arrived I was so nervous about adapting and making friends. Everyone in the program and the people of Madrid are so welcoming and friendly. I felt right at home immediately. The program directors at the Intern Group were great at organizing events to get everyone together.

As for my internship in particular, I loved working with kids at a for a not for profit. Working with kids helped me to learn so much about myself and improve my Spanish.

Loved it.

Thanks for everything, truly a wonderful experience. Lots of learning curves along the way but overall a very immersive and educational time here in Madrid. Met lots of kind and welcoming interns and co-workers. Madrid is truly a sight to see and there are many new things to try. I was here for over 6 weeks and it still didn't feel like enough to explore everything I wanted to see. Would love to come back here to work again or just visit. Thanks for the wonderful opportunity and experience guys! :)

Madrid Internship

I had such an amazing time in this city! The intern group was great at supporting me throughout this journey and making sure I adjusted. There is always so much to do and see. The night life is some of the best in the world and there are so many historic sites to see. The people are super friendly and welcoming, I never felt out of place here. I hope to return soon!

My internship was so amazing I worked with children in at an NGO for two months and learned so much about myself as well as children.

Hong Kong Internship

I had a great time, all the activities were organised super well and I felt supported to go about the city on my own through the programs help and guidance! It made the experience feel seamless and let me meet many people in a safe environment. I was able to enjoy my internship which they guided me in choosing so that I would get the best option for my trip and made sure that I was never stuck for things to do! From hiking, Temple tours and many great restaurant experiences, it was all a fantastic time that I enjoyed thoroughly!

Unforgettable experience in Tokyo

This is my experience in Tokyo Program.
Really recommend if you, like I was, are looking for a international experience.
Fast and easy to apply, within 3 months everything was scheduled for my program.
The TIG team in Tokyo is great, especially the experience coordinator Erika. Professional and easy going person, always ready to help if issues happen.
I had some misunderstandings during my the placement with the internarional team at the beginning of the process (that's the only reason for the 4/5) but no big deal.
Of course there are things that can be managed better, but for what concerns the overall experience in Tokyo is a 100/100.

Pros
  • Great in person assistance
  • Beautiful organised events
  • Building with the others
Cons
  • Not really clear communication during the application process
  • Often internship are not paid
