A Meaningful Experience That Helped Me Grow

My internship abroad was an experience I will always remember. Living and working in Bangkok gave me the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone, experience a different environment, and learn how to adapt to a new workplace and culture. During my internship, I gained valuable hands-on experience in IT and had the chance to work on different tasks and projects, which helped me improve both my technical and problem-solving skills. I also learned a lot from the people I worked with and enjoyed getting to know a new team. Outside of work, living abroad helped me become more independent and confident. There were definitely some challenges along the way, but they made the experience even more meaningful. Overall, I am very grateful for this opportunity and the memories, skills, and friendships I gained throughout my time abroad.

6 months internship in Bangkok

I spent six months in Bangkok through an internship organized by AIP, and I am very grateful for the experience. The internship gave me the opportunity to gain valuable professional experience, broaden my perspective, and develop new skills in an international environment. It definitely opened new opportunities and was a very rewarding experience. AIP made the whole process much easier by organizing the internship placement and arranging accommodation before my arrival. The apartment was in a great location, making it easy to get to work and explore the city. Whenever I had questions or needed support, Nisha, Herlyn and Kate from the community management team were always kind and happy to help. Overall, I had a very positive experience. Having AIP take care of the practical arrangements allowed me to focus on making the most of my internship and my time in Bangkok.

Wonderful 6-months internship

I spent six months in Bangkok on an internship organized through AIP, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. AIP played a vital role in advancing my professional path: they handled every detail with great efficiency and successfully placed me with an excellent company that aligned perfectly with my career goals. The apartment provided for the entire duration of my stay was in a highly convenient location, making daily commuting and exploring the city effortless. I am especially grateful to my coordinator, Nisha, who was absolutely wonderful throughout the process. She was always available to assist me with any concerns or questions, regardless of the time of day. I highly recommend AIP to anyone looking for a seamless, well-supported overseas internship!

Experience in Thailand with AIP

I have good experience with AIP during the summer. I learned and network a lot through the company. Especially thank you to my mentor Smile, her professionally and hospitality makes me feel welcomed in the company. Through the summer, I gain public speaking, marketing, and sales skill. This is a big step forward to my professional journey

Great Experience

Good experince with AIP, had a wonderful overseas internship experience at Thailand. Staff was helpful and accomodating. Prompt responses and helpful, especially with my special requests. Highlight of the trip was being able to hang out with people from other countries. There was also many company trips which I thought was a very fun experience. I have always wanted to come to Thailand and experience the culture, and I think it was an eventful experience to be able to have this opportunity. Thank you for the support.

Great Help with AIP

AIP got me the internship i was looking for, and in such a short time frame they found the company and the position i was looking for. This help me tremendously not just my gaining the experience, but also this allowed me to achieve my academic requirements as well.

Anna FooteUnited States · July 2026

University/AIP Fellowship

My experience may be somewhat unique as the only real support I needed was help securing a placement, not the fuller range AIP typically offers. I worked with AIP through my university, and the staff were great, especially Tyler, who was quick to communicate and support me throughout. Early on there was some misalignment with my placement, requiring a fair amount of back-and-forth to resolve. I also wish there'd been more transparency upfront about program accommodations, details, and health benefits. Specifically, I wish I'd known what the insurance plans actually covered, so I would've felt more comfortable going to the doctor or navigating the city if needed. AIP claims to offer this kind of support, but I never used it, needed it, or even knew the details of what was available. Beyond helping kick off conversations with partners early, I'm not sure how much added value AIP provided in my case, but it was reassuring to have a support community there just in case. Worth it for a student coming in independently who needs support and planning help. Less clear whether it's worth it for a university.

AIP Experience

My internship in Bangkok through AIP was an incredible experience, and I’m very grateful for everything the team did to make it possible. From the beginning, the AIP staff were friendly, responsive, and always willing to answer questions throughout the placement process. Moving to a new countrywas intimidating, but having a local team available made a huge difference. They organized a welcome event where I met other interns before starting work, which was a great way to build connections and feel comfortable in a new environment. Living and working in Bangkok was an unforgettable experience. Beyond gaining valuable professional experience during my internship, I had the opportunity to immerse myself in Thai culture, meet people from around the world, and explore the city. The experience helped me grow both professionally and personally, giving me greater confidence, independence, and a broader global perspective. One thing I appreciated most about AIP was knowing there was always someone I could reach out to if I needed help. Fortunately, my internship went very smoothly, so I rarely needed additional support, but having that local network gave me peace of mind throughout my stay. I would highly recommend AIP to any student interested in completing an international internship.

Great experience

I was so incredibly fortunate to be accepted into AIP’s internship program. The people at AIP were extremely accommodating and kind and helped me navigate my way through a new country. They provided me with accommodation and a host company where I worked full-time at for 6 weeks. I spent my internship in Bangkok, and it was an amazing experience of learning, doing new things and exploring. Thank you for looking after me during the internship, I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is interested!

An Outstanding Internship Experience in Bangkok

My internship experience in Bangkok, Thailand was an incredibly rewarding experience that I will always remember. It gave me the opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to the civil and structural engineering industry while experiencing a completely different work environment and culture. Throughout the internship, I learnt not only technical engineering knowledge, but also how professional engineers communicate, collaborate, solve problems, and manage projects in a real workplace. Seeing how engineering concepts from university are applied to actual projects has given me a much clearer understanding of the profession and has strengthened my confidence in pursuing a career as a structural engineer. The AIP team made the entire process smooth and stress-free from beginning to end. My account manager, Jeff Oo, organised all of the required documents and guided me through each step, making the application and preparation process straightforward. My community managers, Nisha Shahi, Herlyn Jarder, and Kate Myat Noe were also incredibly supportive throughout the internship. I especially appreciated Nisha organising a welcome dinner before work began, which allowed all of the Bangkok interns to meet each other and settle in before starting our placements. She also kindly walked me to my workplace on my first day, making it much easier to navigate an unfamiliar city and helping me feel comfortable from the very beginning. The accommodation arranged by AIP was in a convenient location close to my workplace, making the daily commute simple and allowing me to focus on getting the most out of the internship. Whenever I had questions, whether about purchasing a SIM card, transportation, or everyday life in Bangkok, the AIP team was always approachable and quick to help. The pre-departure meeting was also extremely useful, providing practical advice on local services, cultural differences, and things to be aware of before arriving in Thailand. Overall, this internship exceeded my expectations. I gained valuable professional experience, improved my communication and organisational skills, learnt how engineers work together in industry, and developed a greater appreciation for working in an international environment. I am very grateful to AIP for their continuous support throughout the entire journey and would highly recommend the program to any student looking for an overseas internship experience.

Enjoyable Intership

AIP was very helpful and fast getting me a 6-week internship in Bangkok. They helped make the whole experience easier and more comfortable. They organised an interesting and fulfilling internship that was in my area of interest, which I enjoyed.

Internship experience

I had a pleasant experience doing an overseas internship in Bangkok with Asia Internship Programme (AIP). The staff were all very professional and helped to make sure my time in Thailand was wonderful.

Best Internship Ever

My internship in Bangkok has been incredible. Working in such a vibrant city offered the perfect blend of fast-paced professional growth and rich cultural immersion. The street food, friendly locals, and dynamic work environment made every day an unforgettable adventure. Highly recommend it!

Jia En ChinSingapore · July 2026

Internship in Bangkok with AIP

I did a 10-week internship with AIP in a Bangkok start-up fintech firm. My experience here has been nothing but fulfilling and enriching. I met amazing colleagues who were nurturing and taught me a lot about finance and Thailand in general! I met many new friends here as well and we did some travels out of the city during the weekends. Huge shout-out to Nisha who was very helpful during my interview and placement process, to constant check-ins in Bangkok. I was unfortunately hospitalised during my 2nd week here but received amazing private healthcare here and Nisha very kindly offered to come down and visit! Bangkok is overall a great place to stay with good food, amazing amazing culture and great shopping!

Internship in Bangkok through AIP

My internship experience with AIP in Bangkok, Thailand was amazing! The AIP team was very supportive throughout the whole process, always checking in and providing guidance whenever I needed help. I really appreciated how they organized intern meetups and even took us to explore different places. The program was well-organized and helped me grow both professionally and personally. I highly recommend AIP to anyone who wants to intern abroad and gain real international experience!

Thailand: Living and Working Abroad

My experience with the Asia Internship Program had many high points, particularly through the company I was matched with. I was placed in a company that aligned with my interests and allowed me to grow through hands-on work in a supportive and communicative team. The location was convenient, and I felt genuinely cared for by my workplace during my time there. AIP provided some strong support, specifically through their on-the-ground community team, who was responsive and helpful during my stay. Their platform was easy to navigate, and after some discussion they found comfortable housing, which made the transition smoother. The availability of 24/7 support provided some peace of mind during my time abroad. That said, for me, a challenge was pre-departure communication. At times, I felt I had to chase information just to stay on track, and it wasn’t always clear what stage I was in or what was expected of me. Having a lack of information that ensured security created unnecessary stress before the internship began. During the internship, I would have appreciated more consistent community engagement, such as biweekly events or cultural outings to help interns connect with each other and their host country. While events were occasionally mentioned, during my experience, there weren’t consistent opportunities organized for interns to connect, and much of the social interaction had to be self-organized. To AIP’s credit, I did feel they genuinely cared about my experience and responded when feedback was given. With clearer communication and more structured community-building, AIP could greatly enhance an already valuable program.

Two Months in Chiang Mai: An Internship I’ll Never Forget

Thanks to AIP, I was able to really dive into the working culture during my eight-week internship in Thailand. It gave me a much clearer idea of my options after my studies. But this internship was about so much more than work - I also got to experience Thai culture, explore the beautiful nature of northern Thailand in Chiang Mai, and meet some truly amazing and kind people. It’s an experience I’ll never forget and a step I am very grateful to have taken.

amaizing experience

I had such a unique and exciting experience thanks to the amazing team at AIP. They supported me every step of the way and made my time here truly unforgettable. Kate and Herlyn helped me find the perfect accommodation in a beautiful neighborhood, just 20 minutes walk from my internship office. It was exactly the environment I was hoping for and the flat I was staying at wonderful. Jeff was incredible in securing my internship. He quickly found me the exact position I wanted, arranged the interview and I was accepted right away. He handled everything, from the visa process to all the documentation, making the whole procedure stress-free for me. What made it even more special was the way the entire team was always by my side. They regularly checked in on me, organized activities with other interns and created such a warm and welcoming community. I’ll always be grateful for their support. Everything went so smoothly, even better than I ever imagined possible.

Lifechanging Experience

I had the incredible opportunity to intern at a private equity firm based in Bangkok, Thailand, and I can confidently say it was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had to date. During the internship, I was exposed to real-world investment processes—from deal sourcing and market research to financial modeling. I gained hands-on experience analyzing companies across various sectors, with a particular focus on emerging markets in Southeast Asia. Working in Bangkok added an extra layer of richness to the experience. The city is dynamic, culturally vibrant, and great for young people explore, grow, and meet new people. Being able to engage with the regional market while living in such an energetic city was truly a unique advantage. I would highly recommend this internship to anyone interested in emerging markets and cultural exposure.

I made the decision to apply abroad when I started to feel stuck in Finland. Always seeing the same things and repeating your routines can only get you so far. I felt like I really wanted to shake things up and that's how I came up with going abroad. Before I had travelled around, but I had never lived anywhere for a longer period.
