Asia Internship Program (AIP) Reviews

Anybody who is looking for a meaningful internship experience I advise to use AIP’s service. Very reliable, transparent and so far most affordable on the market. My internship was not just meaningful in terms of getting practical experience but also in terms of finding what I am really passionate about. Now I am planning to go back home and start a business with a person I’ve met during the internship program this year. Thank you AIP for this once in a lifetime opportunity. I will never forget it.

I was definitely scared at first to be going to South Korea by myself because it was the first time I have travelled by myself in my life, and it was also during the pandemic. But, AIP helped me throughout the whole process and dealt with my concerns and worries when I was in South Korea. They gave 24/7 support for me when I needed it, they answered questions that I had any concerns about as well. The overall team was just amazing and helpful!

The internship itself was an experience! I managed to learn some Korean through working in a local Korean company, I made new friends and learnt so much about the culture that it makes me want to go back to Korea and live there! I already miss the country and will definitely be going back to travel when the pandemic is better!

It's been almost a year already since I've been in Thailand and completed my 3 month internship with the help of AIP. I can still remember the fun times I've had with my colleagues and friends that I've made in the country. At the time I was pretty lucky, getting in an out before the lockdown happened again in December. In those 3 months before the lockdown, I had the chance to explore the beautiful attractions of Thailand and also bond with friends and people. This is all thanks to AIP for giving me a great internship experience with my host company and for showing me around. Definitely would recommend!

A great experience during this difficult period of time has taught me many things. I actually would like to have an internship abroad at the beginning, but due to the pandemic that causes traveling be harder than before. Therefore I decided to change the type of my internship to be a remote internship instead of an in-person internship.
On the other hand, this internship has given me many things such as remote working skills in which we will have to be concentrated and prioritize our tasks carefully to finish them in time and also it helps me improve my communication skill as we worked remotely, therefore, we have to make it be most efficient.

The remote internship is something that should be promoted more among students since from my experience distance work is truly the future of the workforce. The young generation should be the one moving forward and not just changing the world into a better place but also providing alternatives that will be more efficient and profitable for everyone. Rather than staying in a cubicle in the office, remote work develops strong self-discipline and lets you work on something meaningful without being checked every minute by a supervisor. Appreciate AIP's help in opening eyes into new normal reality and smooth process of the placement.

I desperately needed an internship to complete my degree. I tried looking for internships on my own, but to no success. Luckily, I came across AIP. I applied on their website, sent my CV, and next thing I know I was being interviewed by one of their admin. Everyone has been so nice and helpful throughout the whole process. They sent many great offers until I finally found the right fit for me. They guided me through processing my visa and not long after I was on a flight to Japan! The whole process was really smooth and quick. During my time in Japan, I met so many great people, experienced their wonderful culture, and gained hands-on work experience that I will always remember. I wouldn’t have been able to achieve any of it without the help of the wonderful staff of AIP!

I completed by first ever remote internship with the help of AIP a few months ago. I was supposed to do an internship in Singapore but had to cancel everything last minute due to the pandemic situation. A friend of mine was doing remote internships through AIP, so I decided to do the same. Honestly, I had my doubts because I didn’t think it would be possible to gain hands-on experience through a remote internship, but I was wrong! I got a chance to work with a tech company in Singapore. Even though we were in different continents and time zones, they treated me like one of their employees and gave me tasks that helped me improve my skills. I had the freedom to work from anywhere and at my own pace. My AIP supervisor was also very kind and responsive to emails. To anyone considering a remote internship now, I definitely recommend you try it out!

Saying that this internship was great is a huge understatement. We're in the day and age where remote styled work is encouraged ever since the COVID-19 global pandemic.

It was a struggle at the start to find an internship on my own due to the lack of responses from so many companies that it felt that I needed help. I came through a couple of internship providers but AIP was the one that stood out the most. Going through the whole process was great and simple. The companies provided to me were interested and I ended up finding the right one for me!

I was able to gain so much experience from this internship alone and I even decided to go through with a longer duration just because of how valuable the experience was. I would like to give my thanks to AIP and to my host company for taking care of me throughout the way.

Never in my life did I think I would be doing my internship remotely. But with the circumstances we are in right now, I am lucky to have been able to do an internship at all. I admit, I had my doubts about it at first. However, AIP made the progress and the experience so comfortable for me that it ended up being a really good time. I also know that this may be the future of the work environment as well so I am glad I got the chance to experience a bit of it with my internship. Thank you AIP for this opportunity. I would never have considered it if it wasn't for your program!

Using an internship service provider in order to search for internship placement was not something new to me, but I’ve been fascinated by how smooth and understandable the process was with AIP, especially during pandemics. My supervisor was very helpful and transparent during the whole process. Any issues I’ve been facing during the internship were faced and addressed immediately with the best possible solution. The internship I applied for was supposed to be in China, however, since the visa restrictions were against it AIP assisted me with a very attractive opportunity in South Korea, the country I’ve never thought I would be interested in and more than that I decided to stay here after the internship was over. Truly appreciate the cooperation from AIP’s side and transparency in dealing with issues.

I have finished an internship in South Korea 2 weeks ago and I felt that it was an amazing experience for me! I have applied with AIP and got an offer from the company which matched with my request the best and the interview went so well and my internship coordinator assisted me with everything so fast. When the internship agreement was completed, my visa process began right after. My internship coordinator provided me the visa assistance which was so helpful even though there was more difficult and complicated due to the pandemic, I finally received a visa on time and flied to South Korea as planned! When I arrived in Seoul and stayed on the quarantine place, I have worked remotely with the company and to let me have a good introduction before I go to the office. My supervisor was so nice and kind, she guided me with all the details I had to know such as informed me detailly the daily tasks, introduced me to people in the company and they were so warm, and she also advised me of the place nearby where I could try the delicious Korean food! I was really enjoy working there and I was wish to work in Seoul after I graduate. I found that their lifestyle and their food were so attractive in which I was so happy in everyday I spent my time there. In terms of my role or job descriptions, it did teach me a lot of how I can be proficient in that field. Also, the responsibility that everybody had on their own tasks, I was so impressive with people in the company. They worked hard and they knew the way to relax as well, I love the balance that I have seen from people there and I wish to do that as well. I would also say that there were some obstacles in the beginning in which I was so new and young, however, every time I made some mistakes, my supervisor was always kind to me. She did not blame any, but instead she asked me and taught me the correct way to do that. People in other departments were also kind to me and they said that they were so happy to have international interns in the company in which they were able to practice some basic English conversation with me and I was so happy to talk to them 😊 Time flies so fast, at the moment I finished the internship and stays at my home already. I would like to say thank you to everything that leads me to this experience, I am so sure that I will go to Seoul again. I do not know that I will get a job there or not, but I am so in love with their culture and food. Seoul is the place that everybody should go once in their life and I would recommend it to my friends and others who would like to have an internship there as well!
