Starting year round

The duration of our internships vary between short (6-12 weeks), mid (3-12 months) and long-term (1 – 1.5 years). As a bachelor student, you can gain experience in your field during your summer break and as a master student, we can help you to start your international career. Starting dates are year round, so if you want you can start next month. Or maybe you like to plan a few months ahead, whatever floats your boat.

Experiences of others

Romy Horeman - Brazil

An international experience full of local culture but with the advantages of international friends! Wouldn’t have missed it for the world!

Gerike Baas - Vietnam

I was responsible for exploring materials and resources regarding teaching English for different purposes, organizing events to connect learners community with expatriate community and developing initiatives to create an English speaking environment for a cafe. It was an amazing and educational experience!

Annabel Koppes - Portugal

I discovered the world of influencer marketing, tech companies, coding, annotating, having lunch at the beach, surfing, cultures meeting, green whine, eating a lot, meeting amazing people, learning about me, developing me and having lots and lots of fun. This experience taught me a great deal about the professional world but also about myself and my future.I am missing it already and I can truly recommend it to anyone!
