The Intern Group

From the professional growth, the cultural insights, to the friends I made, my time in Medellin was one of the most incredible experiences of my life! I gained many transferrable skills during my internship and made many connections that will be valuable in my future career journey. The Intern Group organised many different cultural activities, so there was always something to do on weekends. We explored the city and went to nearby towns like Guatape, to get a fully rounded Colombian experience. I loved learning all about the language, the food, the traditions and the way of life here. Medellin itself is a beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and full of lush greenery. There is something for everyone here - whether you like the outdoors, food, or parties, Medellin has it all! Mariana was fantastic as well, always going above and beyond her role as Experience Coordinator to make sure we had everything we needed and felt safe and supported. I will always look back on my time here fondly and recommend an internship in Medellin to anyone who wants to step out of their comfort zone and have the best time!

I joined the internship program for a 3 months program as an IT Internet in Delonia Software. The decision to join the Madrid Program was one of the best I could possibly take, not only because I had the opportunity in Delonia to explore a vast range of different topics and therefore make up my mind regarding the possible career choices in the IT field, but also because the Madrid program itself is extremely good! In Delonia I went on to explore different topics as penetration testing, networking as well as system administration,and all this within a very flexible work culture that allowed me to both look after my personal matters as well as investigate the different aspects of IT within Delonia. I for sure never got bored in Madrid because once the working hours are done I discovered the city offered an incredible array of events to attend. It has a vibrant community and if one is not careful it is very easy to find oneself in one event one day and the next as well! For sure it is a city that never sleeps and it is quite complementary with the work culture, which in my case was very relaxed as well. The program of visiting different cities and discover a diverse range of locations thanks to the efforts of the Intern Group team were also very useful, because I could discover places I'd never went to otherwise, because they laid outside the types of place I used to go to. Overall the experience has been so good that I decided to come back and live in Madrid. It is a great city to live in and offers a great culture to explore!

I had an amazing time working for an NGO in Hong Kong during my Gap Year. TIG helped me find a host who suited my needs and interests perfectly. The social events that TIG ran during my time here were always well planned and fun and provided me with an avenue to experience activities and events in the city I wouldn't have found otherwise. There's a strong sense of community with the other interns and I would recommend the Hong Kong programme specifically for anyone wanting to look for a really special city to stay in. Genuinely one of my favourite things I've done.
