Brazil's Most Interesting Internships: 52 Options

Brazil is a country teeming with youth and vivacity. IGS has placed students in Rio de Janeiro and San Paulo. Our favorite internship was for a sports marketing student passionate about working with a professional soccer club. It took a lot of contacts, but we successfully placed him with Santos Football Club–the famed organization where Pele grew into a star. In Rio, we placed a graduate student with a leading women’s advocacy group. Located on the edge of a favela, the organization helped at-risk girls avoid falling into prostitution rings. Brazil is likewise an excellent location for conservation biology students looking to make a difference. With the most diverse habitats in the world, interns have a chance to make a measurable difference. Excursions to the Mato Grosso and Manaus provide an excellent glimpse into the world’s greatest rainforest.

I initially wanted a finance internship in Singapore but my sister insisted on Brazil. I'm glad we took this internship together. What I really liked is that the mentors at work are engaging and kindhearted people. They genuinely wanted us to learn and see the accounting process step by step. We did rotations on the works there, pretty fun and challenging. Happy to be under your tutelage, Ms. Talia. By the way, I am a Finance major so this is totally helpful for me. Good work, IGS.
