Internships & Volunteer Programs in London

My six-month marketing internship with Interngroup was a great experience. I had the opportunity to further develop my creative skills, while working on a variety of marketing-related tasks. The Interngroup team were supportive and organised, which made it easy to settle in and get the most out of the programme. The intern events were a great part of the programme. It was an enjoyable way to connect with others and experience the city outside of work. Overall it was a delightful and valuable experience.

I had a great time abroad! I enjoyed my internship placement, it was exactly in the career field I plan on going into. I also really enjoyed everything about living in London. Alex and Peach have been the best! They have been so helpful in answering questions and helping us along the way, and have facilitated great meet-ups. Overall, I had a really great experience with The Intern Group!

The process of coming to London was quite difficult and caused a fair amount of stress. While this wasn’t entirely the Intern Group’s fault, I do wish I had been given more time for the visa application and sponsorship process. By the time I received my sponsorship number after being connected with the visa company, it was already very close to the latest possible appointment I could get for my work visa. Having even an extra month for this process would make a significant difference and help reduce a lot of the stress involved. I absolutely love London and have been very happy with my overall experience here. My main concerns were that the accommodation was not exactly as it had been described during the acceptance stage, and that my internship workload was heavier than I expected for an unpaid role. The position felt closer to what would normally be considered a paid internship. However, I understand that this was the first time my placement organisation had worked with the Intern Group, so I recognise that this may have contributed to the situation. One of the highlights of this experience has been the support from Peach and Alex. They have both been incredible throughout the program. Alex is extremely friendly and approachable, and Peach is very knowledgeable and informative. Together they make a fantastic team. They have done a wonderful job making everyone feel welcome, and every question I’ve had since arriving in London has been answered quickly and thoughtfully. I feel very lucky to have had them as my advisors during this experience. Overall, my experience has been truly great, and I’m very sad to be leaving. Although there were definitely stressful moments before arriving and at times during the internship, I would not trade this experience for anything. It has been incredibly valuable both personally and professionally.
