Virtual International Internship Program

I absolutely loved my internship experience. I had the opportunity to gain real-world knowledge all while enjoying myself with engaging projects. I was nervous about a global internship at first because I hadn't ever worked in another country, but quickly felt right at home and was able to learn so much. I gained experience in marketing, sales, and even wrote articles for the company. It was such a great experience and I would advise anyone who is thinking of taking part in this program to definitely do so.

This was a great opportunity to gain work experience and gain connections anywhere in the world from the comfort of your own home. This experience allowed me to develop a number of transferable skills in the business area I was most interested in. It’s a great addition to add to your CV and employers are always interested in a candidate who’s worked for an oversees firm. As the experience was virtual I was able to complete it from anywhere in the world at times that were most convenient for me.

Virtual Internships were brilliant at matching me and my interests to a company that helped me get the most out of the program. I gained lots of experience and it was so useful having people in the industry I want to work in (the media industry) to talk to and ask questions about how it works and how to get my foot in the door.

The online resources from Virtual Internships was mostly good, it definitely motivated to keep making sure I was getting the most out of my internship. Some of the information was quite outdated or sometimes contradictory though, so I would take their online advice with a pinch of salt!

You also get two meetings with a mentor, one halfway through your internship and one at the end, and that was definitely very useful in making sure I was keeping track of what I was gaining from the internship, as now I know exactly what to put in my CV for it!

I got to experience working as a financial data analyst for a UK company, and it was an eye-opening experience as I got to learn more about finance as an industry, which has definitely helped me in my graduate recruitment journey!
As this internship is virtual, I also gained valuable skills in how to work effectively and independently when working at home. My manager was very supporting, and the Virtual Internships team was very helpful in answering all my queries.
If you are struggling to find work experience, do give Virtual Internships a try as you will definitely gain a lot out of the programme.

I was set up with a marketing agency in China during summer 2020 and learned so much about the industry. It was invaluable experience that has helped me secure a competitive graduate scheme! I worked for 20 hours a week, giving enough time for enjoying the summer, as well as undertaking supplementary courses. There was also a lot of extra course content from Virtual Internships themselves, as well as really enjoyable webinars on topics such as interview skills. It is also an amazing opportunity to gain well valued international experience.

Virtual Interships provided me with a great opportunity to explore my professional options through an online internship. I was able to work as a Social Media Intern for Boundless Impact which is based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
The internship was definitely out of my comfort zone as I has little experience about social media but by the ned of the internship, I was able to submit a template for the newsletter and also complete profiles of my colleagues. It was really cool to see my work on their website.
It was also really helpful to have routine check-ins with Virtual Internships that helped me in organising my time and reflecting effectively on my work.

Truly a wonderful experience!

I did online internships with companies in Vietnam and Nepal. These were a fantastic addition to my CV in a year where international travel was practically nonexistent. CRCC was really helpful throughout, providing me regular updates about the progress of my job searching process and promptly answering any queries that I had. The work I did was challenging and helped me to develop new skills and learn lots of really useful information. The video call with an employee from CRCC at the halfway point of the internship was really beneficial in evaluating my development. Would highly recommend.
