Business Internships in Honolulu

We worked in the IT field in Hawaii and worked with a very respected IT team. Hawaii’s culture is always happy and people are very hospitable. My fellow interns are diverse. Some are from Hawaii itself, some from US, and some from Japan. I like that I get to meet people with the same ideas as me. Wanna say thanks to the IGS team for making this happen. My introverted self was able to adjust and it will always be something I would cherish. Kudos!

We had an excursion to the eruption sites of Big Island and Volcanoes National Park. My main fields of interest are arts and archaeology so this is so overwhelming for me. Only downside is that I wanted the internship to be longer. I could have stayed much longer. It was full of fun and great people.

I had an internship with coral reef research with top scientists. Dr. Adams is very approachable and eager to help us have our dream placements. I’m really happy I gave this a try. Thanks to IGS and all its staff. Hawaii is amazing!

To tell u honestly i would suggest this to everyone My regular duties and responsibilities as a finance intern are generating and entering data, preparing statements, analyzing reports, and taking notes during meetings..... One of the meetings to which we are allowed to sit in include a Japanese government official and Japanese policies..... I am amazed how well-versed business people are....... They are not just good at numbers, they are also good in speaking Nihonggo!

As an IT student, this internship was perfect for me. I get to learn more about computer systems from a different country, and get to travel also! It was hitting two birds with one stone. This was my first time to leave my country; hence, I was nervous to go at first. Yet, IGS assured me that I am well taken care of, and that they will help me attain my fullest potential. IGS fulfilled their promise, and I thank them for that.

Aside from the hands-on experience we are acquiring, I treasure the friendships I gained along the way. We did a lot of weekend trips and excursions, and discovered the cultures and traditions of Auckland. Two important components of this internship are being open to experiences and being positive all the time. Our IGS mentors always encouraged us to enjoy the learning process of life and finance. Some of them even gave love advices! It was fun looking back what we did on our days off.

During my intern-ing, we are given assemblies on how to run a small to mid-sized business. We are also trained to analyze financial data, create reports, and manage the database. I learned a lot of new tips and tricks on Microsoft Excel!

Well, I was an intern on the second track, where we worked for smaller professional organizations, and I was assigned to an organization that caters to ecotourism and environmental conservation. We are assigned to their IT department and assisted them in all the functions that allow them to effectually communicate with their clients. My desired country for this internship was Hawaii, and it was fulfilled!!!! I wish I could go on an internship again, but in a different country next time. Looking forward to it! Please accept me again, IGS :)

Information Systems, Technology, Computer Science, and Business are my main fields of interest. In my recently-concluded internship with IGS, I acquired valuable real-world experiences, not just book theories.. IGS realy prepared us 4 the actual practice of IT, considering that we also received a Letter of Recommendation upon successful program completion. Thank you very much, IGS. I am eternally grateful.

My co-interns and I are given hands-on responsibilities in a real work setting. My accounting background was quite useful here, but my fellow interns who are just new to this are also able to cope up. Working for a large financial firm will surely be an edge when I apply for another job later this year.

Since I am a business major, I found this finance internship a piece of gem. We worked with a range of clients from all over the world. I was assigned as an associate to a prominent financial planner in Paris, and I loved her so much! She gladly accepted my proposal to include her in my Character Reference, and I am in awe on how immediate she approves of it. She even gave me a tour of Paris on our days-off. I am forever grateful, IGS!

During my IGS internship, we learned about computer softwares and hardwares – my main interests and passions! I also acquired additional knowledge on data constructs and communication strategies - great additions to my stock knowledge. I was under the first track for the interns and we solved the IT needs of large businesses and firms. It was challenging at the start but I liked that we survived it anyway. My inner computer nerd was jumping for joy!

Working with Mr. Smith was the most remarkable experience for me. I never knew my dream to be an associate of a top robotics firm would come true! The housing, setup, airport pickup, pre-trip reader, and office support are all provided by IGS, which makes our lives hassle-free. All we need to think about is how to enjoy and learn from our internship.

The coolest part of working at the Virtual Reality Studio is the amount of responsibility I am given. From Day One they trained me to be a Game Master. I do the same job that the owner of the company does. First I introduce clients to the rules of the game and how the equipment works. Then comes the neat part. I monitor the mainframe computer when the participants are playing. On my screen, I see what the players see. If the players are on Mars and they can’t find a tool they need, I give them a hint. My job is to keep the game moving along and allow the players to feel challenge, but give tips when they are frustrated.

It was always a dream of mine to work overseas in finance. Coming to Sydney and working with one of the leading financial planners was amazing. I learned so much about the mortgage industry and how to generate new business and clients. I worked side-by-side with the owner of the company and attended important meetings in the field. It could not have been better.
