Fantastic Experience

My time in Bangkok Thailand was truly magical. The work I did at my intern company was fulfilling and I love how dynamic the city of bangkok is. Big shout out to AIP for helping me to secure this internship. Without their help, I would not get this opportunity to intern overseas. Also it was nice to have a point of contact for all your questions while being overseas. During my time in Bangkok, AIP was responsive to my questions and queries. They even helped with my visa extension and also organised a meetup for us to network with the other interns!

Best decision ever

Going to Seoul with AIP was the best decision I’ve made so far! The company I’ve worked at was the best and had the kindest people! They immediately took me in with a lot of love and support, despite my Korean not being the best! And knowing that someone from AIP was always available to contact if I should have any troubles was so assuring to know! Big thanks to Herlyn especially for that!!! I felt safe the whole time through and made so many new friends during my time abroad! 100% would recommend :)

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
I went to Gwangjang Market with a friend and ate chicken feet at the same food stand that Gordon Ramsay ate!!!
Pros
  • So many things to do and discover
  • People are very friendly
  • Eating out is so cheap
Cons
  • Might miss friends and family at home
  • Fresh fruit and veggies v expensive
  • Language barriers if you can’t speak Korean

Take me back

I completed a 4-month, in-person internship in New Zealand, and the experience was truly fantastic on both professional and social fronts. My host company was excellent, encouraging me to reach my full potential, and the entire team, along with the other interns made the trip incredibly enjoyable. Exploring a new city with like-minded individuals added to the excitement. I highly recommend this experience, and if I weren't currently seeking a graduate job, I would undoubtedly repeat it. Thank you AIP, despite the delays, you guys were able to find solutions.

Topnotch service

If you're contemplating whether to pursue an internship in Indonesia, I strongly encourage you to go for it! This proved to be an extraordinary experience, and I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity last summer.

Throughout the internship, AIP's support remained consistent. In the end, my AIP experience was more than just an internship—it was a chapter of personal and professional growth. Honestly, the most rewarding aspect of the program is the individuals you encounter. I had the pleasure of meeting numerous outstanding individuals and forming friendships with people from various corners of the globe.

Memorable experience

I'm deeply satisfied and honoured to be given the chance to participate in AIP's Internship Programme in Bangkok. It was really a pleasure and smooth ride from start to finish. The staff of AIP have been the most helpful and kind, guiding me through each step along my journey. They were responsive and gave me the guidance I needed. I was also matched to a very good start-up company which I am highly satisfied and happy to be working in for the past 4 weeks. Overall, a very memorable experience for me.

AIP internship in Bangkok

My internship in Bangkok has been a truly enriching experience that gave me the opportunity not only to gain new work experience and knowledge, but to immerse myself in local culture. Definitely no regrets signing up for this one month programme. The AIP team was friendly and supportive during the time we were here in Bangkok, checking in with us regularly. They also organised a dinner for us to get to know each other better. Additionally, the friends I made and memories formed along the way made this a truly valuable time. I love the food the people and the city and I will miss it dearly.

What would you improve about this program?
Additional communication and earlier confirmation of internship roles would have been appreciated!
Pros
  • Friendly team
  • Adventures
  • Travelling
Cons
  • Confusing confirmation timeline

Internship in an Investment Firm in Bangkok

AIP provided me with an internship with an investment firm in Bangkok. It brought me new experiences and I was able to learn many new things from my time here. The AIP Team brought me and my fellow interns on a nice welcome dinner and we also received sufficient support along the way during our stay here in Bangkok.

Made many new friends on this trip too. We had many adventures, roadtrips and experiences here in Bangkok together and I'm glad AIP brought us closer through this internship program.

What would you improve about this program?
Probably the amount of contact we received prior to coming over to Bangkok for our internship.
Pros
  • Fun adventurous
  • New experience
  • Support
Cons
  • Lack of contact prior to arriving

Discovering what I really love

I have completed a 4-month internship in Bali with a fintech company, where I not only worked but also attended workshops that equipped me with valuable skills. It's an excellent chance to learn, work, and immerse yourself in a new part of the world. I highly recommend it, as I had a fantastic experience. It's also a great opportunity to connect and collaborate with like-minded individuals who quickly become close friends. Thanks to my AIP supervisor who never made me feel unattended. She updated me even on weekends and their team would always check on me.

The importance of getting out of your comfort zone

Had a lot of fun! It was an awesome time, and I'd definitely do it again. You get to meet cool people, try amazing food, and have an unforgettable experience. Even if the internship isn't exactly in your career field, I still think it's worth giving it a shot. The staffs in the company are really nice and helpful, so don't worry about adjusting – you'll get used to everything quickly. I love Tokyo; it's the perfect city for an internship. My favorite part was visiting Mount Fuji – it was amazing to see the more rural parts of Japan. The schedule is flexible, so you'll have time to explore many other places in Japan. Tokyo alone has so much to offer; it would take years to see it all.
