Absolute Internship

I joined Absolute Internship in the summer of 2025 for a 4-week internship in Madrid, Spain, and by the time the program ended, my only regret was not signing up for the full 8 weeks! My experience in Madrid was truly unforgettable and helped me grow both professionally and personally. Through my internship, I gained valuable hands-on experience while also building meaningful friendships with students from all over the world. Living abroad allowed me to expand my international network, immerse myself in Spanish culture, and significantly improve my Spanish language skills. One of the things that stood out the most was the incredible support provided by the Absolute Internship team. From the onboarding process to the on-site assistance throughout the program, everything was well organized. The Program Coordinators made every student feel welcome from day one and fostered a genuine sense of community through social events, cultural activities, and weekend trips that made the experience even more memorable. I highly recommend Absolute Internship to anyone looking for an international experience that combines professional development, cultural immersion, and lifelong friendships. If you're eager to strengthen your resume, gain global work experience, and become part of an amazing international community, this program is absolutely worth it!

My internship experience in Lisbon was truly meaningful and something I’m deeply grateful for. Being welcomed into a new culture, learning through real community engagement, and growing both personally and professionally made this experience unforgettable. I felt supported, challenged, and inspired every day. The warmth of the people, the cultural connections, and the chance to contribute in a nonprofit setting all had a powerful impact on me. This experience helped me grow in confidence, independence, and purpose, and I’m thankful for every moment.

My time on Absolute has been truly transformative! From meeting peers from multiple cultures and backgrounds, to immersing myself into Spanish culture and work-life balance, I couldn’t recommend the opportunity to other young people any more! The ongoing support from staff also really ensured we all felt settled in and ready, both before and during our time here (shoutout to Claudia and Gio!). Thank you Absolute, for such a great experience!
