API Intern Group Reviews

The Intern Melbourne programme is a great way to experience Australia whilst gaining work experience at the same time. I met loads of interesting and different people, making good friends in the process. Everyone on the programme does a different internship but we all come together in the evening and weekends to explore the Australian culture and sights through social activities. Visiting Phillip Islands and getting to feed and take selfies with a kangaroo was definitely a highlight for me. I would personally recommend the programme for an experience that you won't forget!

I fell in love with Melbourne during my intern experience. The best part about the program is that you not only get to have an internship in an incredible city, but you have an automatic group of friends who are all looking to explore the city and have an amazing experience. Living in one location really helped everyone get close and made it easier to go out and do things together. Melbourne is an awesome city and this is a great way to see it.

Melbourne is an amazing city to do an internship in. Its really easy to get around in and to get set up. I did a six week internship but I have stayed on to work for a year. I highly recommend if anyone has the opportunity to stay on an work to do it, as you only get a working visa once, make the most of it. The best thing about the intern programme for me is the really helped me get set up after my internship finished they still remain in touch and provide support. They went above and beyond what was expected in terms of service for the programme by assisting me in my transition to working and living in Melbourne.

Lana is a fantastic Social Coordinator, she is very well connected and introduced me to many people I know spend time with in Melbourne. You will never be stuck for plans and will make lots of new friends.

Thank you so much Lewis for all the help and support you gave me. Your help with my professional development and my c.v helped me secure a job so I can stay on in Melbourne.

I would highly recommend this programme to anyone considering coming to Australia especially if you plan to stay on after your internship. Melbourne is a thriving, interesting city, full of amazing people like Lana and Lewis. Even better if you come during the summer. I will still be here so feel free to get in touch and I can tell you more about the programme.

I had a truly incredible summer in DC thanks to the Dream Careers program. My internship with DC Public Education Fund was one of the most valuable experiences of my life and really prepared me for my future work in education and the nonprofit sector. I met so many talented and inspiring people through this program, both personally and professionally, and had one of the most fun summers of my life. The staff that led the program helped me to explore and grow to love the city and helped to connect me to resources that would help me grow professionally. My summer with Dream Careers was life changing and I will be moving to DC to work in the education field in the future because of my experience in this program.

My time in Medellin can only be described as fantastic. The staff were freindly and helpful at both the Intern Group, my workplace and the University(ies). The range of work opportunities on offer from the program is broad, with lots of areas for one to both implement and develop their skills.

The Program is more than simply working however, as the culture and language learning opportunities provided by the program really give you value for your money. The Spanish language course is great and tailored to your exisiting skill level with firendly teachers who will assisst you with your individual needs. As for the culutral espect, Medellin (and Antioquia) might well be Colombia's best kept secret. There is so much to experience here from the night life, to the museums, as well as the trips outside the city, and so much more.

Overall I would highly recommend this program to anyone. The work experience aspect alone is worth it, but its the stuff on the side that really makes this progam a must

The headline says it all. Decided to do this program because I thought New York would be a great place to network and a place I could see myself living in and starting my career at. Intern Group really helped me make my dream come true by providing me with great housing at a great location in the city, fun and interactive trips throughout the entire program within the city, top of the industry internships exclusively through Intern Group, and best of all: friendships and connections that you will never forget. Intern Group not only changed the way I value my career path but also change the way I view life. Go out and do something different at a place you never been to before and have fun with it. You won't regret anything and you will really learn from it.

I would recommend the Intern Group Internship program to anyone looking to advance their career and travel abroad. My internship in wealth management in London prepared me greatly for job searches and has been a pivotal talking point in all my interviews so far. Intern Group made it so easy, supplying us food vouchers for dinner and an Oyster Card for transportation, not to mention guaranteeing internship placement. The preplanned day trips and weekend trip to Paris were one of my favorite aspects of the program. I created lifelong friends within the program and had the opportunity to travel to other European countries with them. I wouldn't trade this past summer for anything in the world, and I encourage anyone interested in interning in a new place, whether abroad or domestic, to do it through Intern Group.

Prior to my summer interning in New York City, I had never been there before. However, I always told people after I graduated college that's where I was moving to start a new chapter of my life and my career. Call me crazy, but it was my dream, and still is. And after my Intern Group program, it has gone from a dream to a reality.

I had a mini panic attack on my flight to the city, questioning everything, and wondering what in the world I had gotten myself into. As a small town girl from Louisiana, New York City is the complete opposite of anything I was used too (that's one of the reasons I fell so in love with it).

From the moment I touched down at JFK airport, I felt the support of Intern Group. It presented me with an opportunity I would not have otherwise had. Throughout the summer, both at my job and through the program, I was able to learn and grow as a student, professional, friend and individual. I was able to make many important network connections, educate myself on everything that is NYC life, and find myself.

There aren't enough words in the English language to describe the amazing experience that is a Intern Group program. The internships, the sponsored and unsponsored events and the staff are all enriching, enlightening and encouraging.

From something as small as taking the subway to work, to something as huge as making a personal delivery to Andrew Lauren's downtown penthouse (yes, that is Ralph Lauren's son), every moment and every experience during the summer is one to cherish.

I would without a doubt, highly recommend a Intern Group program, especially this one, to any and everyone!

The Miami Dream Careers program provided me with the best internship experience I could have ever asked for! I had never heard about the program before stumbling upon their website last fall, but I am extremely thankful that I did. Thanks to Dream Careers, I had to opportunity to gain professional experience, and make amazing connections within the field in which I plan to pursue a career. Miami is an excellent location for your summer internship experience- great people, diverse culture, incredible nightlife, located near the beach, TONS of things to see and do!! I had an absolute blast with the other interns in the program and made friendships that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend choosing Dream Careers for your internship experience, as well as Miami, FL for your program location.

I signed up for a 6 week internship, running from September through to November, working in the media sector in Melbourne.

I was placed at firm called Anthill, which was really a bit of an umbrella term a this firm has expanded from its beginnings as a simple business magazine into several different websites, blogs and also has begun it's own online university for entrepreneurs.

I loved my time working there. It was a relatively small team in the office, but there was plenty of work to get involved in throughout my stay. My main goal was to create and design a brand new iPad magazine, which was a fantastic challenge in itself.

I also assisted in video editing webinars, hiring and managing freelancers (such as designers) for various projects we were completing, setting up an automated email newsletter and maintaining a new website through daily blog posts.

I also began proof-reading work sent into us and making sure it was appropriate for publication on the main Anthill website, which I also managed to post a few of my own articles on.

So a very busy, but incredibly rewarding experience.

In terms of living in Melbourne, there is a reason why it's regularly been voted the world's most liveable city lately. CBD is packed with lots of things to do and see (I was in there everyday). There's tons of places to go for food and socialise and I enjoyed the buzz in comparison to the big suburbs which were a lot quieter. Trains and trams are regular, so its easy to get about in the city (I often preferred walking) and getting to and from both the accommodation and work was very easy.

The accommodation is basic and I wasn't sure what to make of it but it quickly becomes your very own space to live and if I'm honest, I was only sleeping there at night, I didn't spend a whole lot of time there.

Lana, the social coordinator, is great, she's extremely well connected and knows exactly what's going on and coming up in Melbourne. Meeting other interns was great too and learning their stories and where they had come from. During my time it was a bit of a lull in numbers, which is a shame because the australian summer was just getting started and the weather was generally great.
