Marine Science Internships in Vietnam

Vietnam provide me lot of new experience and knowledge. Since I am coming here, i do not stop learning, and the information comes from everywhere not just from the work. The people of vietnam are all very friendly and like to help me. Environment is also really nice, so i am often go to do a walk in the evening and seeing the beautiful rivers and mountains. It is a such amazing experience.

Vietnam is more beautiful than I had imagined. I find it incredible that Hanoi is such a bustling urban area, yet you’re able to find parks and lakes around every corner. The scenery wherever you go is just stunning. There are so many opportunities to fully experience the nature, with activities such as kayaking, hiking, and rock climbing. The support from Meiji throughout was great. They did a wonderful job introducing me to Vietnam, and provided me with everything I needed to do an internship there (as well as stay safe and comfortable). Without these people, my internship experience in Vietnam would have never been able to happen.

My internship in Vietnam was unforgettable for many reasons - good and bad! On the internship side everything was perfect from both the host company and Meiji, so I really have no complaints there. On the other side, breaking my wrist was not so fun - especially when I saw the hospital bill! Luckily I had insurance so I am not officially bankrupt, but I’ll take it forward as a lesson and pass it on to you - make sure you get insured.

My internship in Vietnam gave me the opportunity to learn not only all about the world of Vietnamese business, but also Vietnamese culture. Both are elements you cannot learn without actually being in Vietnam, so I’m over the moon with my experience and would absolutely recommend Meiji to everybody considering an internship in Asia.

During my internship in Vietnam I worked with an international imports and exports business. I especially enjoyed this as it meant I was exposed to not only Vietnamese culture, but I was able to actively engage with businesses around the world. Meiji put the internship together really well - everything was always clear and they met all their requirements as an internship provider. As a result, I would highly recommend their services.

I wanted to focus my work experience towards social enterprise, and Vietnam is one of the best destinations to do this. I worked with a small business that was targeting towards the agricultural industry. All the colleagues seemed like a family, so it was a really nice place to work at. I learnt a lot and they exposed me to many things I would have never imagined to see. It’s a super beautiful country too, it was feeling like a holiday at some times.

Loved every minute spent in Vietnam and I wouldn’t hesitate to go back again. Of course I went for an internship but I still took every opportunity to have fun and party! It’s ideal for those on a budget too, given how cheap everything is there. You can definitely get by experiencing a lot without spending anything significant, so it was great for a student such as myself. A big thank you to Meiji and my lovely host company for making me feel welcomed in Vietnam!

If this internship could be summed up with one word, it’d definitely be “rejuvenating”. My career was in a bit of a slump, and I have to admit it was hard to get things going again. With that in mind an internship seemed like a good option - it would bulk up my CV, as well as give me just the right dose of inspiration. Meiji were so easy to deal with, I was expecting the process of sourcing an internship abroad to be one big headache, but I’m grateful to say that is far from reality. Vietnam is an incredible nation full of some of the sweetest people you’ll meet in your life, they really know how to enjoy life there! I owe it all to my host company who not only took good care of me and always made sure I was okay, but also gave me exciting and meaningful tasks - so I wasn’t just making coffees!

My internship in Vietnam was a good exposure to a new and very interesting culture. I did my internship with Meiji Internships who helped me arrange everything I needed, that includes the accommodation, the company, help with all the documents, SIM cards, and everything else. My colleagues at the company were really helpful for my time in Vietnam, they showed and taught me a lot about the culture of Vietnam. When I was not working I was basically enjoying a long and cheap holiday! It was a really great internship.

Doing an internship was a necessary part of my university course, and I knew I wanted to do something different. I contacted Meiji to discuss their options, and we mutually decided that Vietnam would be a good location for me. My internship was with a popular Vietnamese hotel chain that took great care of me, and taught me all there is to know about the industry as well as the Vietnamese culture. I can say now that I’ve unexpectedly found a new love for Vietnam, and I’m considering career options there later down the line. Meiji offered the perfect service to me. They were always clear and timely with their communication and they were meticulous with everything. It was a really smooth process! Overall, I learnt a lot, had a lot of fun, and got my university credit...I’m happy!

For anybody seeking work experience in a place that isn’t your average run-of-the-mill destination, I would recommend Vietnam. The work environment is really easy-going, and I was able to work with some incredibly talented individuals who taught me a lot. Life outside of the office was great too, there's always something to do in Hanoi and you can almost guarantee it will be affordable. The Vietnamese are very hospitable and are always happy to see foreigners engaging with their culture - my advice to you would be make every effort to strike up a conversation, you never know who you’ll meet. Exceptional service from Meiji, highly recommended.

Meiji’s internship service was very good. They found me a high quality internship with a good company, and they gave me an apartment that was well suited for a single traveller. I would recommend Meiji Internships.

Everybody needs to visit Vietnam at least once in their life, it’s so beautiful and there’s really no place like it. My internship there was basically an excuse to have a long holiday whilst gaining some tangible work experience and I did exactly that. I saw some of the most amazing places I’ve seen in my life there, and equally met some of the most amazing people in my life too! Meiji’s business partner was the perfect match for me, and the accommodation honestly exceeded my expectations. Thank you for this amazing opportunity.

My internship to Vietnam was made special by all the Vietnamese people who I think are the best people in the world! They were very kind and always made the smile on their faces, every day I was really feeling happy. I worked with the small company dealing with trading, so it was some good experience. They seemed to be very excited with a French person, some of them have never meet a French person before, sometimes I feel like a celebrity lol! Very good internship provided by Meiji I will always recommend!

Visiting Vietnam was a reminder why I love to travel. It's an amazing culture! The people are probably the nicest I have ever met and everybody made the trip so special; plus the food was cheap and so delicious. My company worked in tech so it felt very modern, the workforce was young and everybody was professional, it was an inspiring place to work in honestly. I learnt a lot of new things that I believe will make my future career even greater. Thank you!

Aside from being an incredible holiday destination, I never knew Vietnam was a great place to start a career. I chose to do my internship here just because I had always been interested in the country, but little did I know it would change the course of my life. I was pretty open when it came to deciding which industry I wanted to work in so in the end I picked business development as it’s so varied. Meiji placed me with a local coffee producer, and as a caffeine-addict this was something I couldn’t refuse. The day-to-day work was really interesting because I was able to learn a lot about the coffee industry and the production process itself, as well as drink A LOT of coffee! The workplace had a good mixture of young and old people, so I was able to mingle with a lot of different vibes. Meiji’s accommodation was very ideal in my case, it was probably walking distance but I chose to cycle to work every day which took around 10 minutes. Looking back on this time feels really nostalgic as I was so new to the working world in Vietnam, it really inspired me, to the extent that I am now working full time in Vietnam and plan to stay here indefinitely. Thank you Meiji!

This was my first visit to Vietnam and I wouldn’t change a thing. I knew I wanted to do an Internship in Asia but I had no specific location in mind, so I did a bit of research and concluded that Vietnam would give me a unique perspective on the professional world. I imagine it’s not so popular as a destination for young professionals but I highly recommend it. Meiji were extremely professional in the whole process of arranging the internship. They set up interviews with companies I was interested in and guided me through the entire process. The accommodation they provided was comfortable and conveniently located, so was very suitable for a long stay. I will say, I’m definitely more on the taller side and some things in daily life were a little difficult. So if you’re tall just be warned about tiny doorways, tiny stools in restaurants, and bring all the clothing you’ll need as it’s hard to find tall clothing in Vietnam.

My internship in Vietnam was really good for me both professionally and as a person. I am a freelance web designer who wanted some experience that would make me different from everybody else. I did some research on how I could do this and I found Meiji Internships. It is rare that somebody in web design can have experience in both the West and the East, so it made sense to go to Vietnam for some work experience. I told this to Meiji and they quickly understood my needs. They found me a company who was looking for a web designer to particularly create materials in English, which was perfect. I quickly became friends with everyone who I worked with and they introduced to me a lot about Vietnam and the culture. Also Meiji arranged for me to have an apartment that was really suitable. I was alone and female so I was often thinking about safety, but I felt very safe in that apartment. Being back in Germany now, it is definitely the case that I am gaining more interest after having some different experience, so I think this internship was worth it.

There is nothing I can fault about my internship with Meiji in Vietnam. I did a case study on the Vietnamese business environment during college and was surprised to learn that it has one of the largest growing GDPs in the world. I became curious about the world of business in Vietnam, so I decided I’d like to do an internship there to experience it firsthand. My first thought was that this would be difficult to arrange, but Meiji made it almost too simple. We had some conversations and they understood my ambitions, in many ways it felt very relatable to be dealing with an internationally-minded group of people. They managed to connect me with a Vietnamese company in no time, I had direct contact with the company before I departed for Vietnam which assured me this was the right thing for me. Now I’ve finished I can confidently say Vietnam is a very impressive country, from the people to the culture to the business environment. I absolutely envision my future career in Vietnam, and hope to inspire more foreigners to consider the same.

I highly recommend an internship in Vietnam with Meiji, you won’t regret it! Visiting Vietnam is one thing but actually living there is a whole different vibe. I spent a month there and it honestly changed my perspective on life. The people there are so humble and happy, even those that have very little. Everyday someone or something put a smile on my face, I legit cried on the plane home lol. It is so cheap too, I’ve never felt so rich in my life. I literally took every opportunity to travel, to eat out, to do everything, and I feel like it had no impact on my bank account. This was a big plus as a fresh graduate. Meiji did the best job setting the internship up for me. I told them I wanted to work with a fashion-focused company and they found exactly that. I wasn’t so sure that was possible in Vietnam but they definitely delivered. They always put my safety first too, I had a great secure apartment in a safe area, I always had someone checking up on me, I could contact them at any time, it was perfect for me as a solo female. Y’all did a great job! Thanks so much for changing my life hahaha.
