London Internship

I thought Beyond Academy did an excellent job while I was in London, planning events and keeping everyone really excited about being in London. it was nice to never feel alone in a big city where I didn't really know anyone and I had a lovely time getting to know the other interns and my coworkers. The community coordinators were great and were super helpful with recommendations of things to do and I liked that they were young too, so it didn't feel like we were being bossed around by a bunch of adults. I thought the initial process of finding an internship was quite what I was expecting. On the website, it seems like you'll be meeting with people to help figure out what you want, etc, but it was just me submitting videos answering questions and emailing back and forth with people. I would've loved to have been able to do a phone/video call to get some things sorted out. The visa process was also a nightmare for me and my contact from BA who was supposed to help me wasn't all that helpful. This made me a bit worried, but it is an expensive program, but I do think my experience once being in London made up for it, because everything was great from then on.
