Pharmaceuticals Internships in Beijing

I graduated in International Business and wanted real experience in Asia. GAC placed me with a trading company in Shanghai's Huangpu district. Within my first week, I was helping negotiate supplier contracts and analyzing market trends. My mentor taught me how Chinese business culture works – completely different from Europe. The team handled my visa, found me a great apartment near Jing'an Temple, and even helped me set up Alipay. The weekly Mandarin lessons were super practical. Three months later, I landed a job in global trade back in the Netherlands – and my China experience was the main topic in every interview. Worth every euro.

As an economics graduate from Malaysia, I wanted international experience but didn't know where to start. GAC matched me with a consulting firm in Beijing's central business district. Within two weeks, I was helping analyze market entry strategies for Southeast Asian clients. My colleagues were welcoming, and my mentor still checks in on LinkedIn. The team arranged my visa, apartment near the subway, and even taught me how to use WeChat like a local. The weekly Mandarin lessons were basic but super helpful for daily life. Three months later, I landed a role in international trade back in Kuala Lumpur — and my China experience was the deciding factor. Highly recommend for any Southeast Asian student wanting to stand out.
