Hong Kong Internship

Thank you, AIP! With your support, I had the opportunity to complete an internship in Hong Kong and gain valuable international work and life experience. From the initial preparation to my time abroad, the entire process was well organised and straightforward. I always knew who to contact whenever I had a question or needed assistance, which made me feel supported throughout the experience. A special thank you to Seth for organising the internship placement and helping to make this opportunity possible. I would also like to thank Kate for taking such good care of me and regularly checking in during my time in Hong Kong. I truly appreciate all the support and would gladly recommend AIP to anyone looking for an international internship experience!

A Perfect Summer Abroad

With AIP's help, I was able to spend an amazing summer in Seoul, South Korea at the perfect internship placement for me. They were very attentive and cooperative throughout the entire process, and their involvement was instrumental to my success. Although I have many people at AIP to thank, including Daisie, Nisha, Ken, Tyler, Jinwoo, and more, Herlyn stood out as such a helpful and kind part of AIP. She showed such great care for me and was extremely attentive to my needs throughout the whole summer. Thank you AIP!

Amazing experience, highly recommend

I had a great experience abroad with AIP. I went to Seoul, South Korea and did a tech internship for 6 weeks, and it was all facilitated and possible thanks to AIP. Everyone is super professional, friendly, helpful, and organized, and I always felt safe and informed while abroad. All activities and excursions were fun and well-planned, and I couldn’t recommend this program more. Each step of the process was taken care of, so it was a significantly better experience than traveling and studying/interning abroad on my own. Shoutout to Herlyn and Tyler for being super awesome and helpful!!

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
Yukhoe, or marinated raw beef, was probably my favorite and most unfamiliar South Korean dish. I came to love Yukhoe Bibimbap, which is raw beef and egg yolk over rice and veggies, with sesame oil and gochujang chili paste on top.

Love AIP!

Such an Amazing program! The staff were all so kind and supportive during my time with them. During my trip they helped me navigate the city, solve hotel issues, and find amazing spots around Seoul. I loved my company I was placed with through AIP, and truly felt I gained so much during my experience there as the job perfectly matched what I asked for. AIP made my experience abroad so much easier and less stressful, allowing me to focus on enjoying my days at work and time off. I really recommend this program for anyone planning to study abroad!!

So awesome!

The AIP staff were amazing from start to finish. From picking us up at the airport to providing support and recommendations throughout, they were great. They welcomed me with open arms and gave me wonderful guidance the entire time. An absolutely unforgettable experience made possible by the kindness of AIP. They led us on hikes, took us to clinics, and gave incredible recommendations for activities and places to eat. They did a great job pairing me with my host company, and I feel much more prepared for the corporate world now.

Unforgettable Internship Experience in Seoul

Thank you AIP for making my six-week internship in Seoul unforgettable! When I first got on the plane, I was nervous, but as soon as I landed and was greeted by an AIP staff member, I immediately felt more comfortable. A special thank you to Herlyn for helping me with my placement and making the process smoother. Even in a stressful situation, like losing my passport, the AIP team guided me through it and helped me feel supported. I am very grateful for this experience and would recommend AIP to anyone looking for an internship abroad.

Great internship experience!

AIP did a great job at matching me with an internship in South Korea that was well aligned with my career goals. I had a wonderful time interacting with my coworkers and getting an inside look at the Korean work environment. Through this experience, I was able to become more confident about my future career goals, as well as develop key skills such as cross-cultural communication. The AIP staff was always there if I needed help, and they gave me great guidance about how to navigate Seoul. Overall, my experience with AIP was invaluable!

Once in a lifetime experience

I did a 4 month internship in Tokyo through AIP which was a once in a lifetime experience.

From the start of the application process, the AIP team were extremely helpful in finding me a relevant internship based on my interests and career aspirations. When I was Japan they stayed in touch and were there to help with any issues. I would like to especially thank Airi and Kate for their support!

I did a digital marketing and PR internship which allowed me to be involved and take ownership of a wide range of tasks throughout my internship period. I definitely learned a lot!

My program also included a tour and I got the chance to visit Mt. Fuji and Kamakura which were amazing.

Also through my company I was able to experience traditional Japanese cultural activities such as tea ceremonies and flower arraigning classes which I had never done before!

It was always a dream of mine to try living and working in Japan and through the AIP program this was made possible. I would definitely recommend AIP to anyone who is looking to gain international work experience.

January Internship @ Kobe, Japan

With AIP’s support, I was able to enjoy a rare opportunity to live in Japan for half a year on an internship. At each stage from resume-building to closing off my internship, the AIP team were involved in every process, which gave me a great deal of confidence to undergo my internship. During my time there, it was relatively fuss-free and I knew who to turn to in case of any issues cropping up. Special thanks to Kate, Herlyn, Nisha, and Alex for your responsiveness and well wishes during my time with AIP!
