My internship in Singapore

I worked with SK Pacific this fall to find an internship abroad in Singapore and it was amazing. SK Pacific exceeded my expectations and connected my with an amazing company, arranged a beautiful condo for me, and made the whole process super easy. I highly recommend this program and think all college students should do an internship abroad.

Singapore is the most amazing city I have visited. It is extremely modern and the architecture is hard to believe. The food is also incredible. They have hawker center, which are basically food courts, that have wonderful food from all over the world. A lot of people say it is "Asia for Beginners." I have to agree, it has all the amazing culture and food of Asia, but it is as modern and clean as any city in the US or Europe.

What would you improve about this program?
No complaints. I am likely going to participate again next year.

My internship in Asia

I come from France and it is was very challenging to find a suitable internship there. This program was very helpful for it connected me with a highly reputable corporation in Asia. I did not think I could have found this internship on my own. It was also a very enjoyable program for we had the opportunity to travel many times on the weekends and also after we completed our internships. After participating in this program I moved back to France and I was able to obtain a very good job here and I think the internship was very important for my success.

A great way to travel and build your resume

Last year I went to my University career center and they recommended that I look into this program. I applied on their website and they had a admissions coordinator work with me and figure out what kind of internship I wanted. I think they did a good job of being transparent about what positions were available for me because most of the other companies like them do not tell you anything and just want your money. The internship was really great and the housing other services were nice and what I expected. I'd recommend taking a look at this program if you want to travel and also get ready for finding a job after college.

I definitely recommend it

I had a great time doing my internship with SK Pacific. I wanted to share this here because the program was a huge help to me getting a full time job in the US. I had been turned down by a bunch of companies for an accounting position, but after doing my internship abroad I was offered an great job in the Bay Area. I am honestly very thankful for the service that SK Pacific provided me and I HIGHLY recommend that any other college student give it a try.

I even got to travel to the most amazing island I've ever seen. Check out my picture...

Great internship and travel oppotunity

Doing a summer internship with SK Pacific was one of the best experiences of my life.

I was able to build on my skills and add work experience to my resume, while traveling the region and meeting new people.

Having never traveled prior to joining the program, the package they offered made it easy for me to acclimate to a totally new environment. The housing they offered was comfortable and closely located to the central business districts. The other interns in the program also made the experience more fulfilling, as we were all able to explore and learn about a new culture as a group.

This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in gaining internship experience and expanding their cultural horizons!

What would you improve about this program?
Daily transportation to and from work could be a bit more streamlined.
