England's Most Prized Internships: 72 options

England is a time-tested student favorite. Many of our placements are in London proper, within easy reach of Big Ben. Our most recent intern worked for a digital marketing firm near the Tower of London. He helped with a Facebook ads campaign for an international client. Another student gave rave reviews to a Kurdish advocacy organization in the city. She conducted original research on Kurdish contributions to Great Britain. Newspaper work is a big draw. Past participants have interned at a major daily. Students with writing skills have hit the streets to cover political events, arts, and culture. Those on a marketing track have launched online campaigns to recruit local business sponsorship. One of our veterinary students headed to a small town in the northern country to assist at a clinic. She did animal prep, surgery recovery, emergency field calls, and basic administration. Museums are likewise a big draw for interns. Our favorite is a maritime museum with a replica trade ship. Our students gave tours on the ship and conducted original research on the backgrounds of 18th-century sailors.

Adventure of a Lifetime

I found out about The Intern Group through my university, and I wanted to give an internship in London a shot, as I was taking a gap year after getting my Bachelor's degree. I tried to have very few expectations going into it, as I was afraid of getting disappointed in one way or another. I am happy to say that the experience I had with this programme would have exceeded even the highest of expectations I could have had. The pre-programme process was as smooth as it could be, with only some minor bumps along the way. Finding my host company was fun, and I made the right choice in the end. Our accommodation, albeit pricy, was very clean, and the staff were helpful and friendly. My flatmates were some of the most amazing people I've ever met, and I genuinely believe that I found lifelong friends in them. The internship brought lessons that I will take into my future career. Most of all, my coworkers and manager were incredibly patient and taught me so many things, both work-related and not. From the beginning, I felt welcomed. Everyone treated me with the utmost respect, as if I had been an employee there for years and not just an intern. Our coordinators were the sweetest people ever, and I honestly couldn't have wished for better people to support my London experience. The social events were always fun, and I loved meeting the other interns. I made some good friends (and memories) along the way! If I could, I would relive it all over again. I've grown, both personally and professionally, for the better. Overall, 10/10 would recommend, both for the CV boost and for the sillies :)
