With the help of New Zealand Internships I was very good informed about New Zealand before going to it for my internship. They also helped me find companies where I could do my internship. Within 2 weeks they found a company for me! I am having a great time at the company. The monthly events that New Zealand Internship has provided are amazing! By doing activities you see a lot of beautiful places in New Zealand and you meet a lot of great people!

I love my time here in New Zealand. I really want to thank Internships New Zealand for my amazing internship. I learn a lot and it is exactly what I hoped it would be. Next to my amazing internship, they helped me to meet so many awesome people. The trips are great and I have never felt a second lonely here. Thank you for everything!

I am so pleased that I eventually chose to use New Zealand Internships to help me with my placement. At first I was hesitant but now I can honestly say it was the best decision I could have made. For starters, their service was really great. Everybody at the team is friendly and helpful and they were able to find me a great Internship in Auckland that I don’ t think I had any chance of finding myself.ย New Zealand Internships also promotes a real sense of community with their interns. They make you feel at home half a world away and help you meet other interns with awesome events.

I realized the value of doing an internship internationally. Youโre not only getting an invaluable international work experience that teaches you a lot about the world and global business, but you get all the cool stuff that comes with it โ making new friends, exploring a foreign country and really get out of your comfort zone. I really loved New Zealand from the beginning. It was really easy to get used to the culture and the kiwis. They are all very kind and easy going.

I have chosen Professional Internship program from New Zealand Internships. I really wanted to go to New Zealand for a long time already. And my internship abroad was a good opportunity to do that. It was also a way to explore the world and learn things about myself. I thought it was a really trustworthy company.

When I had the Skype interviews in front of me last year in Germany I was quite excited. NZI helped me to prepare everything and gave me some helpful tips concerning getting interviewed and introducing yourself to the interviewer. Even when I needed to change the interview date they stayed patient and friendly. So everything went well.

I think one of the best parts about NZI is how you do such a good job of creating a community. I know a lot of people who did coops in other countries and they didn’t have close to the experience that I did because they only knew the people they came with and the people they worked with. I came in knowing nobody and not working with anyone I felt inclined to meet outside of the 9-5. Because of NZI I made friends quickly and had countless experiences that I would consider some of my best memories. Thanks guys! It was just awesome and I would not hesitate a second to do it again.
Timo
When one of my friends got back from an internship in New Zealand, she told me that I needed to go if I had the opportunity. Well, lucky me, because I had the opportunity to go. But how do I arrange an internship myself? That’s the moment when New Zealand Internships was able to help me really well. After signing up and sending some documents they found an internship within weeks for me! And it doesn’t end over there. During your internship the company is there to help you out with any kind of problems you may run in to. They also arrange some discount on the most amazing trips you can imagine. It’s definitely worth the money!
Ruben
I’ve done my internship via New Zealand Internships. From my first e-mail till I ended my internship they helped me with all my questions. The guys at the office are friendly, professional and always eager to help you out. Besides the internship, the company also organize a lot of social events. I even got discounts for awesome trips with other interns! My internship was good, the help they offered me was great, the experience overall was perfect! I would recommend everyone to go on an abroad adventure with these guys!

My internship lasted 3 months, I had a great time and the team was incredible. The people are very welcoming and you feel at ease very quickly. New Zealand is an amazing country, I had the opportunity to visit a lot of places during my days off (coromandel, bay of Islands, Glowworm caves, Rotorua…) and I definitely recommend this country.
Niels
My name is Niels and I am from the UK. I did my internship in Marketing, specifically in the field of property investment in Auckland. With my internship I gained lots of experience. Choosing New Zealand Internships to find me an internship has been one of the best decisions of my life. New Zealand Internships worked very professional, was interested in what I was looking for and supported me with my application documents. In conclusion, you only can benefit from the experiences you are going to gain in NZ.
Dennie
I am from the Netherlands and did my internship with the New Zealand Internships company itself in the role of business developer and looking for new possibilities in the market. In the company I learned to work in an international environment. Because of all the trips I joined, I met people from all over the world and had a great time. I recommend to anybody to sign up for an internship in New Zealand. Besides gaining professional work experience, you also have the possibility to travel through a beautiful country!
Karine
I am from France and did an internship in the field of Marketing. With my internship in New Zealand I wanted to get more experience on the one hand and improve my English skills on the other hand. During my internship, I was really happy that New Zealand Internships made it possible for me to travel through the most beautiful country of the world and join many activities with other people, who were very friendly and open-minded. It was a great experience!
Leonard
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 through NZI. 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.
Julia
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!
Okko
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.ย 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. 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. 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!
