Popular Types of Vienna Internships
In a city with a population nearing two million residents, internship opportunities abound in every direction. No matter what you’re interested in, chances are you can find what you’re looking for in Vienna. To help narrow down your options, take a look at this breakdown of popular types of Vienna internships:
Short term internships and summer internships vs. long-term internships. The first thing to consider is how much time you have to devote to an internship abroad. Internships in Vienna are available on both a short-term or long-term basis, ranging from a month or so and usually up to a year. If graduation is looming, but you’re still working towards your degree, summer internships are also available and popular among students. Remember some internships are only a part-time gig, while others require a full on 40-hours-a-week commitment.
Popular fields of work. Vienna is a leading business and technology hub, thus holding some of the most popular types of internships in those sectors. Finance internships also sit at the top of this list with education and hospitality internships trailing close behind. If none of those strike your fancy, there are also many other prominent industries where you might find an internship in Vienna.
Paid vs. unpaid internships in Vienna. The last thing to consider when sorting out the details of your internship abroad in Vienna is distinguishing between a paid and unpaid internship. In today’s job market, candidates vying for top positions are finding it increasingly competitive. Hands-on experience and acquiring new skills learned through internships often provide rising college graduates with a huge advantage. If the experience alone comes with promises of a future position, then the ramen dinners may be worth it. If not, find one that will pay you in more than experience and good vibes.
Life in Vienna
Known as the City of Music, Vienna has a dynamic, young atmosphere that oozes good music with independent labels, cult-status underground record stores, a vibrant Monday through Sunday club scene, and multitudes of street performers tickling your ear on the daily. You’re bound to have a gut time as an intern in Vienna!
Vienna is also famous for its elite coffee culture. Despite incursions by Starbucks and Italian-style espresso bars, the kaffeehauskultur is still the traditional way to drink a cup of coffee and authentically experience life in Vienna.
Keep those pinkies up! The Viennese appreciation of the finer things in life extends beyond its opulent coffeehouses into elegant vinothek cellars and in rustic taverns in the vineyards fringing the city serving up only the finest Austrian wines. Local and international delicacies fill the Viennese plates, and world-renowned chefs radiating creativity can be found experimenting with local produce and fresh new flavor combinations in equally innovative venues. But traditional, wood-paneled beislns are always a staple, dishing up hearty portions of Wiener schnitzel and goulash.
GoAbroad Insider Tips
When it comes to life inside the office walls as you’re interning in Vienna, be prepared to work hard and at a high level. Make sure you indulge plentifully in the coffee culture to be able to keep up with the highly professional, efficient work culture. In addition, Austrians highly value punctuality, so do what you have to do to ALWAYS be on time.
Outside of the office walls, Vienna is potentially one of the safest cities in the world for its size. There are no slums or districts you need to avoid. And don’t worry about getting tired of city life. Living in Vienna you will leave you only a short trip away from the Alps, where all sorts of outdoor adventures await you.
Don’t even think up leaving Vienna without perusing at least one of the many outdoor markets held daily. Small stands and characteristically Viennese hut-like shops host a large variety of vendors and wares, from the upscale to the dirt-cheap. Each market houses several shops of different kinds from butchers to bakers to candlestick makers. Additionally, many of locations hold true farmers markets, often on Saturday mornings.
Vienna is steeped in history and has a significant legacy as one of the most influential cities on the continent. From the Habsburg dynasty in the middle ages to its current central position in international affairs, Vienna has for a long time been one of Europe’s most flourishing cities, and today, nothing is different. Vienna's past is alive in its present, and when you choose to intern abroad in Vienna, you’ll be a part of its future.

Trip was great, would definitely recommend other people to travel to Rotterdam. Both our country coordinators were great. They were responsive and showed us around the city. I liked our housing situation too, as it was in a great part of the city.

Rotterdam 2026
June 03, 2026by: Maya Harvey - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
My time in rotterdam was truly amazing. I got to explore so many different cities surrounding rotterdam, as well as take the full beauty of rotterdam itself. We find group was amazing and provided two students that lived in the area that we were staying, and they showed us around and immediately welcomed us into the city. The relationships we formed with the students was truly amazing and they will forever now be our friends. Carlota was amazing through we find group. She was always very prompt with her responses and was always supporting us throughout the process. She went above and beyond to provide us materials to enhance our project delivery.



I had the best time!!

My trip to Rotterdam is one I will never forget!! I was placed at an amazing company where I learned a lot and had great experiences. My time outside of work was amazing, I had the best in-country coordinators that made sure we were always safe and having a great time.
Was a great experience!
May 31, 2026by: Theo Gerlach - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I had an awesome time in Spain. Not only was the size of the group perfect, but any time we had any questions, our host would be very responsive. The work itself was great, as we got experience working on real problems that these companies have.
Amazing trip!
May 31, 2026by: Ava Kolesnikov - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I had an amazing trip with so many new memories and friends! Blanca was absolutely amazing and so helpful. Madrid was gorgeous and would love to go back. My internship was not the best experience but those feelings have been brought up.
Great experience!
May 31, 2026by: Joey Mitsch - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I enjoyed very much the city of Madrid. Blanca and Cata did amazing in helping us learn the city, and they are awesome people! I met Carlota once during my presentation, and she was very nice and helpful! The location of Fuencarral was not the best because it was far from most places in the city, and there is not very much around the area. I was also upset with the disrespectful attitude of my boss at BIP. But on the other hand, multiple other workers at BIP were very nice and made the workplace environment so much better!
Best experience ever!
May 31, 2026by: Akshaya Mukkala - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
These past 3 weeks have been an amazing experience for me! Blanca Cata Carlotta and Paula made my travel and time so much easier and fun! I will definitely miss it. I do wish the accommodation was closer to the city area as getting food was hard. Other than that 10/10 for everything else!
Rotterdam is so much fun!
May 31, 2026by: Dylan Keller-Gray - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
This program was genuinely an incredible learning experience and so much fun. Our country coordinators made the experience even more memorable by helping us learn how to navigate the city and introducing us to some of the best local places to visit. I’m so grateful that I had the opportunity to participate in this program—it was truly one of the best experiences of my life!
What a fun start to the summer!
May 30, 2026by: Eliza Abbott - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I could’ve of asked for a better experience abroad. I felt supported and safe while getting a valuable work experience out of it. Mathilde and Marina were great guides that introduced our group to the city and had great recommendations. This really was a great opportunity I’m grateful for.

I had such a great time in Vienna, Austria. Our in country providers, Valentina and Alex, were fantastic and always willing and able to help when we needed it. The work experience was a very valuable introduction into consulting, and the place of stay was a convenient location by the train station.
It was a great experience
May 30, 2026by: Abigail Nahum - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
micampus location was definitely the only thing that made this experience not exceptional. It was frustrating to not be able to be immersed in madrids city life compared to other fisher global programs. Although it was nice. CBRE was a great company and opportunity. Blanca did a great job as well.
I loved Madrid
May 30, 2026by: Ryan Dickson - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I had a fantastic experience in Madrid. I was able to learn so much about the culture of Spain and see so many beautiful places. Blanca did a fantastic job of guiding the group and helping us all enjoy our time here. I enjoyed my company placement as well and was able to learn a lot
I had a great time
May 30, 2026by: Jacqueline Sterling - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I loved the placement of the company but wished their was more mentorship and more health of an environment. The location of the campus was convenient, though at time we wished we were closer to the city.

Mathilda and Marina were truly the people to make this trip memorable. They were always quick to respond if we had any questions and were beyond welcoming. It is bittersweet having to leave because I made such amazing memories here. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone!
Best time of my life!!

I had such an amazing experience working in and exploring Frankfurt. Our guides, Marina and Mathilde were excellent! They were very knowledgeable, helpful and comforting! I would recommend this program to anyone who is interested in exploring a new country and wanting to work in a new environment.
An immersive experience outside of the classroom
May 29, 2026by: Chase Sprenger - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
I had a great time taking my classroom French to the real world and experiencing the differing culture. I loved our company placement and getting to know everyone there. Florencia was a very helpful guide and our housing was solid. Though the location was not as safe as we would have liked, the apartment was nice
Amazing social and professional opportunity in Milan
May 29, 2026by: Alex Start - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
Overall, the program is well structured and a great experience for students. Each company is different, and this is where I wish my team had a little more rigorous work, but we were still busy all three weeks. Only thing is students shouldn’t be expected to work on Fridays as everyone skipped those days to take weekend trips. The accommodations were nice, but some students did not get ac during a 95° heat wave
A Well-Organized and Impactful International Experience
May 28, 2026by: Jacob Tartabini - United StatesProgram: The Global Consulting Program: From University to Consulting
This program in Brussels with UPS was an outstanding professional and cultural experience. From the beginning, everything was thoughtfully organized, and it was clear how much effort Carlota, Paulo, and the We Find Group put into creating a structured and meaningful experience that balanced professional development with cultural exposure. So thank you! I especially appreciated the opportunity to work closely with UPS and gain insight into real business challenges in a global setting. The experience felt practical and immersive, offering exposure to different teams and perspectives that strengthened my understanding of international business operations. A special recognition goes to Amelie and Victor, who were consistently welcoming, supportive, and highly engaged throughout the entire program. They brought high energy and deep knowledge to every hangout, which made exploring Brussels and engaging with the program even more valuable and memorable. Overall, this was a highly valuable experience that combined professional learning with cultural immersion in a way that was well-structured, engaging, and impactful. Highly recommended for anyone considering going abroad and wanting to gain professional experience from this too. Brussels surprised me with how much I enjoyed staying there!
