This is the ideal program for undergraduates looking to get international experience before graduating or recent graduates trying to get their foot in the door.

You could become employed permanently as a direct result of participating in our program, as we have partnered with the biggest HR recruiter in China to provide you with job opportunities after your internship ends.

We are the only internship program in China that can offer this.

The internships are in over 150 companies across highly sought after industry sectors. This includes NGO's, marketing, international business, environmental, hospitality, engineering, consulting, finance, law etc.

Prior to beginning your internship you will undertake a 4 week intensive Mandarin course to learn some basic Chinese which will come in handy at your placement as well as in daily life.
