Intern Abroad HQ Anmeldelser 181

This company was great in the planning of our trip to Greece. There was a lot of paperwork and changing plans that they handled very well. They choose their in-country contacts carefully and everyone was very helpful when questions arose.

I feel more empowered as I can now say that I have real experience to go off from in my field. Because I was given lots of freedom and independence on how I wanted to approach my projects this allowed me to delve into my creativity, critical thinking skills, while also time managing. Not only that, but I gained a wide network of peers and mentors if I ever need to communicate with. Some of my learning points included the opportunity to apply the theoretical concepts learned in academic settings to real-world business scenarios, and to acquire industry-specific skills and knowledge that are relevant to my business major.

I am currently in the middle of completing an internship with Intern HQ in Morocco. This experience has been so insightful and absolutely amazing. I would recommend for everyone to experience such a new, beautiful and rich culture. The people have been amazing and it has been such a safe and wholesome experience thus far!!!

My #1 favorite memory from the internship was my second meeting with my supervisor. During this meeting, they told me their experience as a Arab-Palestinian Israeli citizen. The story was raw, sometimes tragic, sometimes triumphant, always inspiring. Overall, it served to bond the two of us early-on, which boosted our success and compatibility down the road. My internship role was to perform extensive research on a recent election and write a report on the reactions to it. This included assessing media and press from across the world, across every demographic and to the most extreme points of the political spectrum and everywhere in between. The written report I formulated informs the organization for which I work on global thoughts on the election that recently rocked their country. This internship has aligned in every way with my long-term goals. Not only does participation in an internship boost my chances of entering university (one part of my goals), but it also makes me all the better suited to my dream field of study: international relations. As a human rights and anti-racism internship, the global perspective, research skills, compassion, and critical thinking skills that accompany this project is ideal preparation for not only an academic, but professional career in the field. Working with an issue as complicated as the one featured in my internship (the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) is excellent training in listening to multiple sides of a story, a critical skill in any diplomatic position, which I aspire to one day hold. Moreover, the type/form/style of written report required in this internship is one I will certainly have to perform frequently in my long-term goals, and is therefore a great source of practice.

Overall, my experience was wonderful! To start, I found the Intern Abroad website very useful in determining which internship I thought would best suit my academic and personal interests. The application process was easy and my supervisor, Dallas, answered all my questions promptly. The reflections that I had to complete through my internship were interesting and though-provoking!

I worked for a Palestinian Organisation called ADRID, an organisation established to educate and raise awareness of the issue of Internally Displaced Palestinians. The main function of my role was to educate and raise awareness of the Internally displaced in my home country of Australia. I was tasked with developing a coordinated approach in bringing a range of local organisations together around the core human rights issues associated with the project. Some of my specific tasks were;

- researching core aspects of the history of the Palestinian people.
- researching Palestinian/ Israeli relations.
- writing a report on the Internally Displaced.
- communicating contents of the Report to the local Australian public including those within schools and other education institutions.

My experience provided for a great learning opportunity that mutually benefited both myself and ADRID.

I had an awesome experience learning hands on ethical hacking with Securetia. Intern Abroad consistently followed up with my progress on a weekly basis and definitely set me up for success by attaching me to this great company.

It was a pleasure working with intern hQ and facilitating an internship in Costa Rica! They were able to provide me with discount flight services, accommodations, and aBeautiful work place to be in. They were able to also let me know of cultural differences And what to expect while I was out there. I went during a more Rainier time where the rainfall was at a higher than normal average. If I could, I would go for a longer period than two weeks because I met wonderful people out there and would’ve loved to spend more time with them.

My internship experience has been great! Thank you IAHQ for connecting me with this internship placement at Isocom Business Consultants، greece! I felt comfortable talking with my supervisor and team and we communicated well despite the language barrier between us. I was very impressed with the level of commitment from my supervisor and internship placement. Upon receiving my very first task, I could see that they were well-prepared and organized, and were ready to answer any of my questions and concerns. The most important task I was involved in was risk assessment and management, and other skills that I learnt along the way included communicating with clients. My internship experience went a long way in developing my time management and communication skills. All these skills work in both the short term and the long term, as the long-term goal of the organization I was paired with was to build multicultural relationships and gain expertise from other countries, so I helped in expanding the knowledge and expertise of the company in this regard. I am currently training to be a consultant in the field of occupational safety and health, and now I am qualified in terms of my degree, and my practical experience from this placement.

My favorite part of the internship was the zoom calls with the kids. That experience alone made me feel amazing, I really loved being able to communicate with them and just be able to talk to them. And as I told them, next time I come to India I will make sure to pay them a visit! I feel more empowered in my field because this experience has given me even more reason to go into the field I want to be in. Currently, I am interested in pre-med, and I feel that through medicine I will be able to give back to this community! Health issues are a big deal in India, and in the future, I hope to participate in activities like medical camps and volunteering at hospitals. If it’s safe, maybe in college I will decide to take a year abroad and go to India, I feel that there is so much more to learn! My most significant learning points were the skills I obtained. These skills include time management, professionalism, the ability to practice smart goal setting. Through the projects I completed and lessons I taught, I feel that I learned a lot about multiculturalism as well as myself. I hope I made a lasting impact on the lives of others in my short time with this internship!

I had the opportunity to work with Community and Social Work Forum for a period of five weeks as result of my social work internship application with Intern Abroad HQ. My experience with Community and Social Work Forum has been unique. This is indeed the word the best describes the five weeks I have spent working with the organisation.

Although I have completed my internship remotely, thanks to the two professionals representing the organisation, I gained an original taste of the work that social workers do in Tanzania. Since our first interaction, I have been welcomed with kindness and I immediately felt part of the team. The whole internship program was person-centred, based on my personal and professional goals. The two professionals have been keen to ensuring that each and every activity that we conducted contributed to the achievement of my objectives. By way of illustration, I have always been encouraged to share subjects of interest to me to be discussed within our sessions. Furthermore, thanks to the support I received and by virtue of our discussions, I have managed to identify areas of improvement in my practice. This fact in itself has enabled me to become a better professional. In this context, I have also felt very comfortable with sharing some of my struggles in terms of the work I conduct with my clients. These have been received with a non-judgmental and extremely supportive attitude, leading the professionals to share some of the struggles they have themselves encountered during their fascinating careers along with techniques and methods to overcome them. The two professionals have always been ready to share their wide expertise and knowledge with me. They have provided me with extraordinary advices and guidance which I am now applying in my work.

It has been an immense pleasure to work with such valuable, caring and open-minded professionals. With honesty, I would be honoured to work with Community and Social Work Forum again. Thus, I strongly recommend Community and Social Work Forum to anyone who is interested in making the world a better place and who is looking for a unique internship or volunteering experience.

Intern Abroad HQ was very helpful every step of the way. I am so thankful for being able to find this opportunity. If I had any questions, they would be sure to help me. They were understanding if I ran into any problems on my end, and they were always willing to help out.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an Internship Abroad. While I did the remote Internship, with Covid-19 still being an issue, I am sure the Intern Abroad option will be just as great.

Horrible. I applied for a media communications internship in Denpasar Bali. When I arrived I went to my internship and they wanted me to work in the bar and ticket office. InternHQ has on their website I would be working with more of the business work and NOT working as a server. I was miserable and left the country early. When I tried to get help they didn’t help and left me at the internship not learning anything. Waste of money and time. My internship companies boss made me cry the first week. DO NOT DO AN INTERNSHIP WITH INTERN HQ until you have done all background research of the company you are working for and clarifying to both parties what you want to do and what they want you to do. Although you shouldn’t need to when the websites say what you are supposed to do and end up not. Please do not waste your money and find an internship abroad with real reviews and certified. I would suggest doing Leadabroad.

I had the most amazing experience doing an internship in Cape Town, South Africa over this summer. I did a psychology internship for four weeks. IAHQ ,thank you for giving me the trip of a life time. The internship I did is very helpful for my future career and I am so grateful that IAHQ gave me this opportunity. IAHQ really helps you find an internship that is right for you. They were so helpful every step of the way. I met amazing interns and I made everlasting memories. I got to see a beautiful country while doing an internship related to what I am studying. Everyone I met was so friendly. I got to learn about a new culture. I definitely recommend this program to anyone who likes travelling and is looking for a trip they will never forget.

Participating in this internship abroad has had nothing but a positive influence on my life. Everything from the accommodations to my place of work was better than I imagined it. Living in a hostile with other volunteers who are working in the area made me feel like I had another family so far away from home. I was fed breakfast every day and dinner five times a week. Each meal was very good. I would definitely recommend this internship to anyone interested.

I enjoyed every moment of my volunteer experience in Arusha, Tanzania. I worked at a primary school called Assumption School that was conveniently placed very close to the accommodation. The student body was so kind and diverse in regards to tribal origins, religions, and socio-economic backgrounds. The staff were also so very welcoming and kind and helped me not only in class but also on the day to day by inviting my over to their places for a meal, and helping me buy fabrics and gifts for appropriate prices at the local markets and even for exchanging money! The accommodation was always clean, with amazing food and all other interns brought such positive energy that made this experience unique compared to that of past volunteer experiences. As a result, I was excited to not only go to work to see my kids, but also to go home and spend time with my new found family!

I volunteered in Cusco, Peru for 4 weeks at a clinic. In the clinic I worked with a Physiotherapist and worked with the patients they saw. The tasks included doing pain management with hydrotherapy, electrical stimulation, laser, and ultrasounds. The therapist taught me a lot I did not know and working in the clinic was very hands on.
Prior to departure, my program coordinator was very responsive with any questions I had. There was an internship manual that explained everything I needed to know so there was not any surprises when I was there.
The home stay were extremely friendly! I always felt safe and they were always there if I ever needed anything. I actually got emotional when I had to say goodbye to them. I definitely will be doing another internship with InternAbroadHQ. The only mistake I made was not staying longer!

I did an internship through Intern Abroad HQ in Cusco, Peru for a semester study abroad through my university. It was one of the best things I have ever done in my life! It has been my dream to study abroad since I was in middle school and through this program, I was able to live that dream.

Intern Abroad HQ did a great job at organizing everything pre-departure as well as checking up on the group of us throughout our time in Peru. The staff at Proyecto Peru were amazing and super helpful with helping you out with anything and everything. I was lucky enough to be able to work with the director of the English department. I assisted him with teaching classes, marketing, program development, and program outreach. Within the first week, the staff already felt like my family away from home.

My host family was absolutely incredible. They were the kindest, self-less, and most inspiring people I have met. They made me feel right at home and never made me feel like I was just another student at the dinner table. Leaving them was so hard and I can not wait for the day I can go back.

My sole purpose of going to Cusco was to learn Spanish. Anyone looking to improve their Spanish, Cusco is the place to go! The Spanish is very easy to understand, and the locals are always willing to help you out. My private Spanish lessons through Proyecto Peru helped me a lot to gain more fluency and proficiency as well talking with my host family every day.

Finally, if you are an adventurer, Cusco is calling your name. The Cusco area is beautiful. There is so many cool places to explore. I promise you won’t have enough time to see it all. Plan your weekends ahead of time because in a blink of an eye they will be gone!

Now quit reading this review and go apply for an internship with Intern Abroad HQ. I promise you will have an experience of a lifetime!

After coming home from Spain I immediately wished I could go back. My internship in Valencia was so amazing and I truly got so much out of it. I learned about the field I want to go into, got hands on experience, and did this all in another country. I arrived in Spain extremely nervous because I never left America before but as soon as I went to my orientation I knew it would be amazing. The staff and everyone was so helpful and answered all of my questions. I also had the opportunity to meet other students from other Universities who became great friends throughout the trip. My host mom was so nice and even though there was a slight language barrier I felt comfortable in her home and she helped me with anything I needed. I recommend this experience to anyone looking to intern abroad.
