"Planning, Questions, and Contacts"

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.

"REAL"

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…"

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!!!

"Human Rights & Anti-Racism Remote Internship (Based Out of Israel)"

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.

"The best remote internship experience I have had!"

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!

"Raising Awareness of ISPs."

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…"

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…"

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.

"Occupational Health and Safety remote internship-Isocom, Greece"

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.
