Living my dream in Indonesia

During my internship, I got to dive into the field I'm passionate about. I worked on handling data, creating a database, and building a model for a potential AI operating system down the line. This experience helped me pick up a bunch of technical skills, and I often had to come up with solutions for problems the company hadn't faced before. It felt like I was a valuable part of a team working on something important. It was a very cool experience and I also got to travel in Thailand and Vietnam.

Digital Marketing Remote Internship

I had the privilege of completing a 2-month remote internship with a Tech Solutions company as a Digital Marketing Intern, and the experience was so chill and enriching. One of the highlights of this internship was the hands-on exposure to various facets of digital marketing. I actively participated in content creation, managing social media platforms, and contributing to SEO optimization efforts. The team's guidance and constructive feedback played a pivotal role in refining my skills and understanding of the industry.

I am proud to note specific achievements during the internship, including a notable increase in website traffic and social media engagement. These tangible results, coupled with the mentorship received, have significantly contributed to my professional development.

All thanks to AIP for arranging my internship with this company. They exceeded my expectations and I'm very grateful for the opportunity. Also, they gave me a discount so I'm definitely applying for summer next year!

Southeast Asian

During my NGO internship in Malaysia, I had the privilege of contributing to meaningful projects that aimed to uplift local communities. I worked on initiatives focused on education, healthcare, and sustainable development. This experience not only broadened my perspective on social issues but also allowed me to collaborate with passionate individuals dedicated to making a positive impact. Thank you AIP for providing me with what exactly I wanted to do for this internship. I really enjoyed it and will definitely visit again.

Xin chào Vietnam!

I was really lucky to do an internship in Vietnam last year. AIP was super supportive, and I met awesome people during the internship and at social events. Ho Chi Mihn quickly felt like home, and I made lifelong friends. It helped me grow personally and gain professional experience. No regrets, and I wish I could do it all again. I recommend this program to anyone who wants to travel and work professionally. This experience taught me that anything is possible, and you should grab every opportunity.

What was your funniest moment?
I was trying to vlog my meal and I mispronounce a word in vietnamese. Everyone inside the restaurant were looking at me but the person next to my table was very friendly that she corrected and taught me the right tone to say it.
Pros
  • Very affordable coffee
  • Food is the best
Cons
  • It can get really hot during summer

My first ever Thailand experience 2023

When I chose Thailand as my primary destination, I knew it right away that it will be fun and full of adventure although I'm going there for my internship. AIP arranged an airport pickup for me as part of my package and the moment I went out of the airport, my driver was waving a banner with my name. I felt very welcomed. My accommodation also includes a gym which really helped me a lot because food in Thailand is topnotch. Also, on my first day at the office, the entire team arranged a small welcome party for me which really made me feel comfortable right away. Although some people in the office didn't speak good english, they were able to converse with me everyday and I actually learned a lot of thai words. Overall, I am very satisfied! Thank you AIP!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
My duration. I find it very short and I feel like I missed a lot of things to experience. I'll be back soon.

Best Trip Ever!

I've been to Japan several times, but doing an internship here is totally a new experience for me. With the the help of Asia Internship program, specially my account manager, I got to live in Japan for real, not just as a tourist They match you up with awesome companies. Although the accommodations there are pretty small compared to other countries, it's still clean and accessible to everything. Big thanks to the the entire Asia internship program team who worked really hard setting up fun events to make sure everyone enjoys their time in Tokyo.

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
I think it would be the Natto. I find it very weird to eat.
Pros
  • Very peaceful environment

Interacting with locals and navigating the intricacies of the hospitality industry in a culturally rich environment further broadened my perspective and solidified my passion for the field.

Bridging Continents with AIP

During my internship, I had the privilege of working with a leading player in the digital marketing sector in the UK. Living and working in a new country presented its own set of challenges. However, with the support of the Asia Internship Program, I developed a heightened sense of adaptability, resilience, and intercultural competence, skills that are invaluable in today's globalized workforce.
I would also like to mention that AIP even managed to offer me a free drop off at the airport on the day of my flight back home. Kudos to AIP!

This diverse exposure was instrumental in developing my skills across customer service, communication, and organizational efficiency.
