Amazing Once in a Life Time Experience

I had an Internship in Chengdu and it was an intresting experience dealing with a new unfamiliar language and culture. However, the Chengdu InternChina office was extremely helpful and the social community was a great support. Every Thursday there was an organised evening dinner at amazing resturants and on the weekends there were orgainsed trips and events.

I had the pleasure of learning a new language, adapting to the Chinese culture and most importantly gained amazing friends and professional contacts during my internship in Chengdu. It is an program I would recommend everyone to do!

What would you improve about this program?
This program is great because you gain your professional chinese work collegues as well as friends who are fellow interns. However, it would be intresting to see more events which bring the chinese community and foreigner communities together.

Learn a lot and make great friends

I did an internship at the IC office in Chengdu for 3 months and then another 2 months internship in another company. I was welcomed into the team really quickly and made great friends that I still keep in touch with now. The staff from the other offices were also really nice, we communicted daily online. The IC staff are all young and highly committed people who take their job seriously, but also know how to have fun. They help you out with any problems and you can always talk to them if you are unhappy with your placement and anything else. In the worst case they will even help you find a new company. As part of the office interns I liked that I was given a lot of freedom to focus on tasks that I like and that I'm good at. I felt this experience was very valuable in finding out about my own strengths and my future path and I am happy I got this chance.

What would you improve about this program?
I noticed that the Chinese staff in the company is sometimes treated differently from the international staff. I know that there is a difference in culture and working, but as this is an international company I really wish they would treat their staff equally.

Internship in Chengdu

I am currently doing my internship in Chengdu. I have been here for only 1 month and I have acquainted myself with almost all the aspects of my internship. There is so much diversity that no day is the same. There are great people that support me around the clock. Chengdu is a great and bubbling city to live in. I can recommend InternChina to all people who are willing to come to China and have a unique and great internship!

Chengdu Internship - led to career start!

I completed an internship in June 2013 as part of my masters degree, during the time I met a variety of business professionals, had alot of fun learning new skills and also made contacts which helped me find a job in Chengdu.

InternChina offered a professional service - going the extra mile to help me settle in and when I needed them - they were there. It was a great experience and one which led me onwards towards my career goals and aspirations in China!

Internship in Chengdu

Because InternChina specialized to place people from all over the world in China, they have a good knowledge of how to help within a completely different culture and working-environment. That helps you especially if its your first time in China.
I needed to be flexible with my internship dates, what is difficult if you apply directly at companies. Most companies just take Intern who are willing to stay at least half a year. Thanks to InternChina it was possible for me to apply for a flexible three month short-term internships.
It is also better for your experiences to stay in a less developed city in China like Chengdu, Zhuhai or Qingdao. Here you get a better understanding how China and chinese culture is like. InternChina helped me with different events to explore the Chengdu city life and trips to the beautiful country-side.

Internship in both Qingdao and Chengdu

Last year I had the great opportunity to do an internship at the IC office in both Chengdu and Qingdao. I am very glad that I had IC's support during my stay in China. Their help does not only begin with the official start of the internship but way before, since day one of my application. During the week the staff always replied me within 24hrs and helped with the VISA, matching, accommodation ect.
One of the greatest things about my internship is that I had the chance to work in two very different cities. I couldn't decide between them since I've never been to any of those places, but I also didn't wanted just to travel but to work in a firm and improve my marketing and business skills. Thus I received the opportunity to work in both of them, one month in Chengdu and two months in Qingdao. Those three months in China became one of the best summers ever!

From a former InternChina intern in Zhuhai!

I interned at the IC office in Zhuhai during the first semester of 2013. It was my first time living in China and I'm glad that I did it through InternChina. Not only did it help me strengthen my professional skills, but I also made great friends and got to visit some of the most beautiful places that China has to offer. I would say the best attribute about InternChina is their 24/7 support to interns, given that China has very different customs to the West and the language can be tricky. It made me feel so much safer and more able to enjoy my time there.

Loved Qingdao

I did a marketing internship in Qingdao this year. Qingdao is a great place to live in, the proximity to the beach and the rich bear culture makes it a great location to spend your summer. Beijing and Shanghai are not that far either so I went there for a weekend trip.

The InternChina staff was really helpfull, they picked me up from the airport even though it was like 12pm. They showed me around and helped me adjust to the city (Thanks guys). I would have proably been completly lost without them.
