Travel Consultancy (Travel Industry) Internships

One of the Institute for Global Studies' favorite Travel Consultancy internship placements took place in Panama City, Panama, at a travel agency. The student sent back pictures of the Panama Canal that became screenshots for IGS computers. A second fun placement involved lining up a student with the visitor's bureau in Wellington, New Zealand. The intern had the chance to visit many of the locations she recommended to visitors and came away from the internship with more local knowledge than many who have spent a lifetime in the city. More than most industries IGS works with, travel agencies and visitor centers know how to provide fast-paced, meaningful work. They are experts in handling people, and this shows in the way they lay out the day for their interns. After a week or two, you may find yourself handling the same job duties as the supervisor. Interacting with the general public develops communication skills and a knack for handling difficult personalities. It’s a boot camp for what may await you in the workforce and you will enter with a leg up on those who have yet to navigate the challenges of people-pleasing.

A Guide to Interning Abroad in Beijing

Internships in Beijing

China, being one of the biggest economies in the world, provides an advantage when it comes to internship opportunities. Although competition is intense with local and foreign students and having the relationship (Guanxi) with companies is important to secure your internship in Beijing, your best chance to get the placement you want is through consulting companies, which ensure you are placed in an internship and doing tasks related to your field, not just there to teach English to the local staff members.

Here are some of the areas to look into:

  • Major Industries: Mining, textiles, chemicals, consumer products, telecommunications equipment, metals, machine building, food processing, and transportation,
  • Growing Industries: Pharmaceuticals or health.
  • Existing Industries: Manufacturing, engineering, environmental, IT, production, medical, and tourism

Internships abroad in Beijing last from a month to six months. The longer you intern in Beijing, the more options you’ll have for internships. There are individuals who opt for a year-long internship as long as it is paid. Companies will usually require you to be a full time intern (40 hours a week). However, if you are a student, it is understandable that you will only be able to intern for less hours (on average, 20 hours a week).

Knowing how to communicate in Mandarin is an advantage especially if you are looking into internship opportunities in technology, engineering, production, law, finance, and accounting. Apart from making sure you know how to communicate in basic Chinese, to give yourself an edge against other possible intern candidates, knowing other languages apart from English will also be an advantage.

If you don’t have experience in the field you want to intern in, make sure you have some of the basics in order to find a good internship placement in Beijing:

  • Willingness to learn about the Chinese business environment and Chinese culture
  • Positive attitude
  • Flexibility in doing different tasks
  • Reliable and responsible
  • Have a University degree or graduating soon
  • At least 18 years old
