Meaningful Internship with Sage Corps in Chicago

During the internship with Sage Corps in 2019, we work with the company's CEO, and build solutions to real problems with guidance and advice. Outside of working hours, we will have the opportunity to live like locals, both personally and professionally.

Before going to work, we need to take an online course designed specifically to integrate into the work life. The course is tailored to each student's characteristics. Courses include self-assessment, entrepreneurial skills, workplace networking and local cultural literacy. Upon arrival in Chicago, there will be a two-day orientation. The purpose of this training is to make us familiar with our working environment and the surrounding environment, so that we can enter the internship status as soon as possible. Finally, a team of career experts will assign us internships that match our situation according to our professional skills, background and goals. Every week, we will participate in a professional activity together with the person in charge of the city. Activities range from social events, visits to well-known companies or presentations by entrepreneurs/experts.

After the completion of the project, we can still feel the great benefits brought by the company: in the eyes of future employers, the unique overseas internship experience will give us more advantages.
