Professional, comfortable and the best choice
April 20, 2015by: Okko - Albany (Auckland)Program: Professional Internship Program
A friend of mine told me about New Zealand Internships. At first I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to pay an internship mediation company to find an internship for me. But after considering it, I decided to go for it. Some might see it as a one time payment or a fee, but it is actually an investment in your future. Choosing New Zealand Internships has been one of the best decisions of my life. My first impression of NZ Internships was that they are very professional. They were interested in what I wanted, offered help & support regarding my motivational letter and c.v., and gave me general advice concerning New Zealand. I did not feel pressured at any time and felt comfortable with them. During the process they offered me a few companies and asked if I was interested to have interviews with them. All that was required from my side was my dedication and commitment. NZ Internships took care of finding the companies and setting up the interviews. This gave me more free time to spend on preparing for exams & finishing projects, rather than spending countless hours surfing the web or mailing companies (which never really reply anyway) to find my own internship. I had one internship company which I was planning on starting my internship, however my university informed me that they were not suitable. After brief contact with NZ Internships I had three more interviews lined up within a few days. How great is that? Some of the companies did not appeal to me at all, and I turned them down. NZ Internships respected my decision. They said it was not a problem at all, and arranged some new interviews for me. Within a week I had found the perfect internship company, and send in the application to school. Once they accepted it, I informed NZ Internships and they send the Internship contract to me & my manager. The contract is another great example of excellent service provided by NZ Internships, it takes away all the hassle which you would have to go through as a student trying to write up the right contract covering every aspect. After I signed the contract I booked my ticket (kilroy.net) and applied for my Visa online. The Visa application process was explained to me in a step by step instructional guide, given by NZ Internships. NZ Internships also offered me help in regards of insurance, housing accommodation and gave me some banking advice (use currencyonline->westpac). When I actually landed on the airport in New Zealand, a personal driver picked me up to bring me to my destination. One of the first days we already had a short meet 'n greet event with other interns at a Spanish Tapas diner. The day after I went to the office of NZ Internships. Here I met the crew, got given a few guidelines and helpful booklets about New Zealand and they gave me my sim card. The whole experience felt very relaxed and NZ Internships gave me a professional impression. It was especially nice because I knew I did not have to spend a lot of hours trying to find an internship at the other side of the world. It's better to leave this to experts who have a big network of people & companies and have done it thousands of times before. If it wasn't for New Zealand Internships I wouldn't be in this amazing country right now getting a lot of good experiences, and learning & growing every day. I am really grateful that I did choose them and can definitely recommend anyone who is looking to come to New Zealand to make use of NZ Internships!
The beauty called New Zealand

I was in New Zealand for (just) 4 months. At the end I have to say that it was much too short. I had the best time in my life! It was definitely the best choice to go abroad. I met many new friends from all over the world, improved my English, got to know a new culture and country and I just loved it a lot! My internship was also very nice. I learned many new things for the job I want to study in Germany, met new and wonderful people and had a perfect time there. Overall, I recommend everyone to visit New Zealand! It's a wonderful place to live and meet people from all over the world. Moreover, nz internships did a really good job. You always felt secure and they always helped me. Thanks a lot for this!
A New Adventure
June 09, 2015by: LeonardProgram: Professional Internship Program
After I finished school in Germany, I decided to do an internship far away from my home country. With my internship in New Zealand I got the possibility to step out of my comfort zone and develop myself, not only regarding my career, but also my independence and personality. During my internship I assumed responsibility for different issues and I was keen to meet this challenge. At first I was a little bit scared, but with hindsight I gained a lot of work experience and benefit from that. It was pretty easy to get in touch with other people, because there were some other interns living in the same building. So we became a community. I recommend everyone to visit New Zealand! You only can benefit from the experiences you are going to gain here.
