Business development Intern in Hong Kong

I did a 4-weeks internship as business development in a vibrant startup company, which has won several competition. During this time I had an awesome support from absolute internship: They gave a great introduction to the city, programm and living style of Hong Kong. Furthermore, they organized great activities to get the most adventure during the program.

I truly recommend absolute internship to get working experience abroad - you won't regret it!

Marketing Internship in Hong Kong

I completed a 1 month internship in Hong Kong this summer. I was recommended by my university here in Canada to use Absolute Internship and I can honestly say that I’m more than satisfied with my decision.

The absolute staff is so friendly, supportive and resourceful. My internship in a digital marketing agency was fantastic and the people that I met through the program were amazing. I really wished that I could have stayed longer. It was so sad to leave Hong Kong and say goodbye to the other students, program staff and my colleagues at work.

I would strongly recommend Hong Kong and absolute internship to anyone considering gaining work experience overseas and meet incredible people from all around the world.

This is a great program!

Thank you for a fantastic summer!

This program is a must-do!

My time in Hong Kong can only be described as awesome, fantastic, amazing.
The absolute staff were super friendly and helpful. The internship I was allocated was great – hands on, relevant to my degree and great colleagues who helped and supported me.

The absolute program is not only interning, it’s all about meeting people and cultures from all parts of the world. Like all the other positive reviews here about absolute internship, the program is amazing and a fantastic way to meet so many cool and interesting people from literally all corners of the world. You really get value for the investment that you make. There are events planned every week, weekends and you can choose to attend whichever you want to. There are both cultural ones, career focused one and networking ones. We had trips to various islands, museums, art galleries and of course to Macau.

I would highly recommend the absolute internship program to anyone. The experience is definitely worth it, but what makes this experience a must-do is the people, the program staff and the inspiration from it that makes it unique.

Top program. Top experience. Top people!

Absolute Internship is a great way to experience Hong Kong with like-minded students from all around the world while gaining work experience at the same time in a world-class city. Everyone is coming from all parts of the world, doing internships in different types of industries (I did mine in Marketing). We had people from Finland, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, US, Canada, Mexico, China, UK and many more. You get to learn so much from so many different cultures.
In the weekend and evenings the program arranges social events and career events so you never feel lonely, there are always things to do and you can choose. Visiting the awesome casinos in Macau was definitely the highlight of the program for me. I loved that weekend!

I would personally recommend the program for a summer that you won't forget!

Absolute Internship delivers!

I was really worried about the unknown Asia before I arrived, as I had never been traveling so far from home without friends or family. I had only been traveling within Europe.

Absolute and its lovely staff made me feel at ease from the moment I touched down at the Hong Kong airport. I loved every single second, every minute of my months and my entire summer in Hong Kong. I met awesome people (we were about 80 students in my group), experienced a unique culture and it was everything I wanted it to be!

Absolute worked really hard to make it a fantastic experience and they succeeded.

The housing was clean, well-located and working in “The New York of The East” was.. words cannot describe how incredible it was.

I cannot rate this program enough. I know other students who interned with other companies/internship programs and unfortunately their experience was not comparable to mine. This was a once in a lifetime summer so if you want it to be unforgettable and want to intern abroad – Absolute Internship delivers.

A Life Changing Summer in Hong Kong

I'm really glad that I signed up with Absolute for my internship in Hong Kong. My summer internship has been excellent. My internship was exactly what I was looking for and it helped me develop a greater understanding of the marketing industry and how it works.

The city is awesome for sightseeing, the food is great and the people in Hong Kong is very friendly. I have learned so much about myself by attending this program, met so many INCREDIBLE people through Absolute. This was the first time I ever visited Asia and I will definitely return. The Absolute staff is wonderful, very friendly and the program activities and trips are great.

I would not have changed this program for anything.

A life changing summer.

Thank you for everything Aurelie!

I spent two awesome months in Hong Kong with Absolute Internship. Overall, the experience I got on this program is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before. I got to meet a lot of really amazing people from all around the world, we were like a big family interning during the days and traveling during the weekends exploring Hong Kong, Macau was an amazing experience. All the students are in the age same group and very friendly.

The accommodation is super clean and I couldn’t have asked for anything better, as it was top standard and in the city center. I loved the public transport in Hong Kong which is so convenient compared to the US – I had no problems at all to get around.
Hong Kong is such a clean, vibrant, safe, dynamic and beautiful city.

I could not have asked for more - I would definitely recommend this program!

Thank you for everything Aurelie, it would not have been nearly as awesome without you!
