Rotterdam Trip

Trip was great, would definitely recommend other people to travel to Rotterdam. Both our country coordinators were great. They were responsive and showed us around the city. I liked our housing situation too, as it was in a great part of the city.

Rotterdam internship

I had such an amazing time doing an internship in Rotterdam for three weeks this summer! Going abroad was an amazing experience and getting to experience it with the help of two amazing guides from WeFind group made it so special!

Maya HarveyUnited States · June 2026

Rotterdam 2026

My time in rotterdam was truly amazing. I got to explore so many different cities surrounding rotterdam, as well as take the full beauty of rotterdam itself. We find group was amazing and provided two students that lived in the area that we were staying, and they showed us around and immediately welcomed us into the city. The relationships we formed with the students was truly amazing and they will forever now be our friends. Carlota was amazing through we find group. She was always very prompt with her responses and was always supporting us throughout the process. She went above and beyond to provide us materials to enhance our project delivery.

Was a great experience!

I had an awesome time in Spain. Not only was the size of the group perfect, but any time we had any questions, our host would be very responsive. The work itself was great, as we got experience working on real problems that these companies have.

Ava KolesnikovUnited States · May 2026

Amazing trip!

I had an amazing trip with so many new memories and friends! Blanca was absolutely amazing and so helpful. Madrid was gorgeous and would love to go back. My internship was not the best experience but those feelings have been brought up.

Joey MitschUnited States · May 2026

Great experience!

I enjoyed very much the city of Madrid. Blanca and Cata did amazing in helping us learn the city, and they are awesome people! I met Carlota once during my presentation, and she was very nice and helpful! The location of Fuencarral was not the best because it was far from most places in the city, and there is not very much around the area. I was also upset with the disrespectful attitude of my boss at BIP. But on the other hand, multiple other workers at BIP were very nice and made the workplace environment so much better!

Akshaya MukkalaUnited States · May 2026

Best experience ever!

These past 3 weeks have been an amazing experience for me! Blanca Cata Carlotta and Paula made my travel and time so much easier and fun! I will definitely miss it. I do wish the accommodation was closer to the city area as getting food was hard. Other than that 10/10 for everything else!

Dylan Keller-GrayUnited States · May 2026

Rotterdam is so much fun!

This program was genuinely an incredible learning experience and so much fun. Our country coordinators made the experience even more memorable by helping us learn how to navigate the city and introducing us to some of the best local places to visit. I’m so grateful that I had the opportunity to participate in this program—it was truly one of the best experiences of my life!

Ruby MantheUnited States · May 2026

I had the best time!!

My trip to Rotterdam is one I will never forget!! I was placed at an amazing company where I learned a lot and had great experiences. My time outside of work was amazing, I had the best in-country coordinators that made sure we were always safe and having a great time.

Eliza AbbottUnited States · May 2026

What a fun start to the summer!

I could’ve of asked for a better experience abroad. I felt supported and safe while getting a valuable work experience out of it. Mathilde and Marina were great guides that introduced our group to the city and had great recommendations. This really was a great opportunity I’m grateful for.

Abigail NahumUnited States · May 2026

It was a great experience

micampus location was definitely the only thing that made this experience not exceptional. It was frustrating to not be able to be immersed in madrids city life compared to other fisher global programs. Although it was nice. CBRE was a great company and opportunity. Blanca did a great job as well.

Ryan DicksonUnited States · May 2026

I loved Madrid

I had a fantastic experience in Madrid. I was able to learn so much about the culture of Spain and see so many beautiful places. Blanca did a fantastic job of guiding the group and helping us all enjoy our time here. I enjoyed my company placement as well and was able to learn a lot

Jacqueline SterlingUnited States · May 2026

I had a great time

I loved the placement of the company but wished their was more mentorship and more health of an environment. The location of the campus was convenient, though at time we wished we were closer to the city.

Rachel PerrigoUnited States · May 2026

Incredible Experience

I had such a great time in Vienna, Austria. Our in country providers, Valentina and Alex, were fantastic and always willing and able to help when we needed it. The work experience was a very valuable introduction into consulting, and the place of stay was a convenient location by the train station.

Chase SprengerUnited States · May 2026

An immersive experience outside of the classroom

I had a great time taking my classroom French to the real world and experiencing the differing culture. I loved our company placement and getting to know everyone there. Florencia was a very helpful guide and our housing was solid. Though the location was not as safe as we would have liked, the apartment was nice

Alex StartUnited States · May 2026

Amazing social and professional opportunity in Milan

Overall, the program is well structured and a great experience for students. Each company is different, and this is where I wish my team had a little more rigorous work, but we were still busy all three weeks. Only thing is students shouldn’t be expected to work on Fridays as everyone skipped those days to take weekend trips. The accommodations were nice, but some students did not get ac during a 95° heat wave

Kevin KirkbyUnited States · May 2026

I had a great trip!!

I was in Lisbon and had a great time! I was placed in softfinanca and learned so much! The leadership at the company was amazing and everyone was super welcoming making me feel at home. Overall I loved this trip and would totally recommend to others!

Presley DakoffUnited States · May 2026

Best trip ever

Mathilda and Marina were truly the people to make this trip memorable. They were always quick to respond if we had any questions and were beyond welcoming. It is bittersweet having to leave because I made such amazing memories here. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone!

Nicole VezziUnited States · May 2026

Best time of my life!!

I had such an amazing experience working in and exploring Frankfurt. Our guides, Marina and Mathilde were excellent! They were very knowledgeable, helpful and comforting! I would recommend this program to anyone who is interested in exploring a new country and wanting to work in a new environment.

Alaina StuckeyUnited States · May 2026

I had fun!

I had so much fun in Bordeaux. Florencia was very wonderful and helpful. She was really sweet and tried her hardest to support us. I feel that the living area was the downside. Many locals suggested that Grand Parc was a very bad area to live and I didn’t feel safe when car windows were broken and locals told me it isn’t safe. Loved the boat tour, welcome dinner, cooking class and activities exploring around Bordeaux.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to all the most common questions about The Global Internship by We Find Group.

How do these projects differ from standard academic case studies?

Unlike theoretical case studies, you will work on live, NDA-protected consulting projects co-designed with senior executives at European firms. These are real business challenges—such as AI integration, ESG benchmarking, or US market entry—where your findings have a direct impact on the host company’s bottom line. You aren't just practicing; you are delivering professional-grade solutions.

Do I select my specific consulting project?

You select your preferred destination country and your top project categories (Environment & Sustainability, Financial & Analytics, Operations, Market Analysis, or Market Entry). Our selection committee then matches you to a specific live project based on your academic background, language skills, and the results of your competency assessment to ensure a perfect fit for both you and the host company.

What does the student selection and assessment process involve?

We treat our selection like a top-tier firm. Every applicant undergoes a competency evaluation and a motivation assessment via our remote digital portal. We use AI-driven matching and personality assessments to evaluate your "Consulting DNA"—focusing on analytical rigor and adaptability—ensuring you are ready to deliver executive-grade results from day one.

What specific deliverables will I be responsible for?

As part of a multidisciplinary team of 4 to 6 students, you will produce professional-grade work including deep-dive market research, data-driven strategy reports, and process improvement frameworks. The program concludes with a Final Executive Presentation delivered to the host company’s senior leadership, where you defend your recommendations in a real-world boardroom environment.

Can I apply with my friends, or will I be assigned to a team?

Both! We typically form multidisciplinary teams of 4 to 6 students. You can apply as a pre-formed group from your university, or we can place you in a global cohort with peers from other top-tier institutions to mimic a real-world, diverse consulting environment. We ensure teams are balanced by skills, languages, and academic backgrounds.
