Asia Internship Program (AIP) Reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience in the ASEAN Internship Programme, as the entire process was well-organised and thoughtfully managed. The team was consistently accommodating, responsive, and supportive, ensuring that queries and concerns were addressed promptly at every stage. Communication regarding the application and onboarding timeline was clear and timely, which made the experience smooth and reassuring. Their professionalism and efficiency greatly reduced uncertainty and allowed me to focus on preparing for the internship with confidence. Overall, the programme left a very positive impression and reflected a strong commitment to supporting interns effectively.

My winter internship in Taipei with AIP was great and an invaluable experience; I worked with a great host company and made lots of memories with all of my new friends. My favourite parts of the experience would be my friends and I exploring Taipei and other parts of Taiwan during our free time and hanging out together after work. I am grateful to be allocated to a great company with a supportive team and environment as well. Taiwan is also a great place for exploring both food and nature, highly recommend.

Very fun and enjoyable experience. I made new friends here. Tried out many food and explored other parts of Taipei. Learned a lot from the job also which aligns with what I was intending to learn. My supervisor at work was very understanding and helpful. I learned to be more independent living alone overseas for one month. One thing that AIP can improve is checking in on us more during our stay here and also help us to source better accommodations that align with our budget and our standards. Overall was a good experience

I had a great experience with this company during my internship. They found a good placement for me and provided comfortable accommodation in a convenient location. Everything was easy to access and well organized.

The cultural activities were one of my favorite parts. I was able to experience Korean culture in a fun and meaningful way. The food was delicious, the people were friendly, the weather was nice, and the public transportation made it very easy to get around.

Overall, my time in Korea was very positive. I really appreciate the support from the team, and I would happily recommend this company to anyone looking for an internship in Korea.

AIP has been completely fantastic!!! From the get go they were incredibly supportive and communicative across all aspects of my 6 week internship in Seoul.
Specifically shout out to my girls Airi, Herlyn, and Kate!! Also JinWoo and Salma for their on the ground assistance 💓💓
Even though my time was relatively short, I know I have made memories that will last a lifetime, I’m so grateful for this opportunity.
My personal and professional life have benefitted immensely.
Thanks to AIP I had an unforgettable experience :)

I loved my experience in Korea! I enjoyed my internship so so much, my company was so welcoming and kind to me for the whole duration of my internship. I received strong guidance and clear instructions, which was very good as a person who had no experience in the field I was working in. Being exposed to a different culture really taught me a lot and I’m so glad that I pushed myself to do this experience. My accommodation was in a great spot and I was close to everything that I would ever need to be close to.

Great time in South Korea! Many thanks to AIP for making this possible. My simple idea of spending a few weeks abroad to gain experience became one of my most rewarding personal and professional experiences.

Before arriving, I was nervous about the work culture: Was it too intense? If I didn't know enough Korean? What if I struggled to adjust? However, South Korea immediately welcomed me with excitement, challenge, and inspiration that pushed me to grow in unexpected ways.

This journey revolved around the internship. I got to work in a fast-paced, creative, and efficient environment. Every day was new, from working with teammates from different cultures to taking on tasks I thought were too advanced for an intern. This hands-on learning is unattainable in a classroom. I learned to communicate clearly, adapt quickly, manage deadlines, and bring new ideas to the table while working with passionate people.

Naturally, living in Korea was exciting. Every day was a mix of discovery and routine, whether it was grabbing an iced long black on the way to work, finding hidden cafés in side streets, exploring palaces, or spontaneously stopping at a late-night feed with the girls. I saw how culture shapes community, work, and daily life, from the pace of the city to the kindness of strangers who helped even if we didn't speak the same language.

Challenges arose. Living in a new country, understanding culture, and managing work expectations challenged me. They were some of the most valuable moments. I learned resilience, independence, and open-mindedness from them. I learned to ask questions, adapt without losing myself, and feel comfortable in unfamiliar situations.

My thanks to AIP for the support, guidance, and structure that made this experience possible and enjoyable. They ensured I had everything I needed to succeed abroad from planning to on-ground check-ins. A caring team makes a big difference when you're halfway around the world, and I felt supported every step of the way.

This South Korean internship was a time of growth, exploration, and clarity about my career path. I'm more confident, inspired, and motivated than ever arriving home. I'll never forget this and am grateful to everyone who made it possible.

My internship in South Korea through AIP was genuinely unforgettable.
From the very beginning, the AIP team made the whole process smooth by staying in touch, offering guidance, and making sure I always knew what to expect. I also loved that they arranged meetups and activities that allowed us to explore Korea beyond just our workplace. The program was thoughtfully structured and gave me the chance to grow both professionally and personally.

During my time in Korea, I was able to learn so much about the culture and enjoy many great moments with my company and colleagues. It’s an experience I truly appreciate.

I’d definitely recommend AIP to anyone looking to gain real international work experience in a supportive environment.

It was interesting to be here in Hong Kong. Being nervous, excited, and learning a lot of new things in a beautiful place like Hong Kong is something everyone should try! I really recommend it :) you’ll have the perfect mix of a work life balance in Asia.

Of course next to working you’ll have a very easy access to to travel around in China which is a beautiful country as well. You can try the nice food of Hong Kong have a nice walk through the beautiful hikes Hong Kong has. Maybe go to the harbour, nightlife… a lot of things are available to do. Of course I also want to talk about the AIP program itself. They really help you shape the perfect internship for you with the requirements you’ll have for them. They are very flexible in the options you have and they help you choose the destination and the corresponding company. Also during the internship they ask you to share anything you want, so you feel comfy all the time :)
