AIFS Abroad Virtual Internships

I had great support interning with a company based in the UK. There was a small issue at the beginning of the internship, but it was easily fixed due to my advisors being knowledgeable and timely! I would recommend.

I had such an amazing time during my internship provided by Global Experiences. It was a virtual position and I got the chance to connect with people from across the world, and there was no lack of connection as communication was very strong and receptive both from GE and my internship organization. For the three months of my internship, I had biweekly meetings with Carmen who gave such focused and detailed information about learning skills, how to work better, time management and ask any questions we had. This made me so much more comfortable during my placement. So, GE as a whole is 100% worth it in my opinion.

Programming has always been one of my most admired career goal so I took it upon my self to engage in it . I didn't have much opportunity because of my family financial capabilities . During my secondary school I used the money I saved running errands to purchase a course(python programming language for beginners) I saw on (Coursera.org) while I was browsing through how to learn a programming language and ever since I haven't stopped and python is now one of my best skills with other programming languages. Most of the skills I have I acquired through e-learning and I believe I have what it takes to participate and engage actively without supervision.
