Internship in Tokyo Summer 2025

The experience coordinators Neff Watts and Jessica were amazing! My internship was also a great success and I learned a great deal from it. The Tokyo team is very capable and do a great job of introducing participants to the country and city, as well as teaching them a lot.

My London experience was great

My London experience was great! As someone who's already based here I still found the programme massively helpful and a great way to make new friends. I got to create a professional network in a city I'm already based in, meet tons of new people from all over the world and experience London through a new lens. Laura, Priscilla and everyone on the placement team provided lots of support and honest feedback throughout the process and really took their time in getting to know me and my career goals. Peach and the rest of the London experience team are also great and ensure all of the London cultural events are fun and engaging. I am currently considering returning to the programme for a second internship due to my initial positive experience.

I had a great experience working with the intern group during my 4 week internship. Rachel, our experience coordinator welcomed us and took us to see the London eye and a fantastic play. During my time in London, I did an architectural internship and had experience working on real world projects. Overall, a great experience and highly recommended for students.

HK Internship

Awesome opportunity! Great people, sights, and events. Hong Kong was an eye opening experience. Exploring the city and night life was exciting. As well as trying all types of different dishes. Hiking and seeing the huge landscape was very rewarding. I could count on Cici if I had any questions or needed any suggestions. She made sure we enjoyed HK as much as possible. Highly recommend if you want to get know new people and experiences!

My experience with TIG was amazing

My experience with TIG was amazing, and I loved every second!
Not only did I have the opportunity to travel and get to know London, but I was also able to gain work experience in a real work environment that helped develop my knowledge and skills. Also, had the chance to build amazing friendships along the way. The TIG team is great, supportive, and committed to making the experience even better. Thanks, London Team!

Unpaid internship

As per my experience, these are the followings that I experience from the engagement and interview with the company.
1) For my case, the internship or work is not paid by the company and the company that you would work for basically also would find cheap/free labor.

2) The partners of the company which The Intern group are partner with are mostly un heard companies.

I decided not to go with the Intern Group, the risk is that your money will not come back to you.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Patrick. We’re sorry you decided not to enroll in our program.

Some host organizations may offer a stipend, but most short-term international internships, like those in our program, are unpaid because they’re designed as learning experiences rather than traditional employment. Visa rules can also prevent payment for international interns. At its heart, our program is about international experience, supporting students as they take on internships abroad or enriching the experience of those already studying overseas.

Our focus is on providing meaningful educational and professional experience, international exposure, and a global network that will stay with you long after your internship ends.

We partner with over 3,000 organizations worldwide, from innovative startups to established firms. While a small number are household names, most placements are with organizations of 11–100 team members, chosen for their commitment to helping interns learn through structured training and mentorship.

We also want to emphasize our commitment to participants. In the rare case that we don’t secure a placement offer in your primary or secondary career fields, we’ll refund all fees paid. If your plans change, we also offer lifetime program credit, so your investment is always protected. You can read more about the return on investment of our programs on our Alumni Stories page on our website.

If you’d like to chat further, our team would be happy to connect at info@theinterngroup.com.

TIG is an experience everyone needs to…

TIG is an experience everyone needs to try! Gaining hands on experience in New York was extremely invaluable, especially being able to network with some of the greatest mentors in the business world. Along with that, the program did a great job at getting all the interns together on a weekly basis, hosting workshops and exploring the city together as a group. The entire experience felt cohesive, well structured and organised. Would recommend to anyone considering the program.

It was really great

It was really great to gain so much relevant experience and knowledge whilst also getting to meet new people and explore the city. I gained a lot of confidence in myself across the 3 months I did in NYC. The events that were organised every Saturday and the meals during the week really helped with getting to know people and helped me do different things that I otherwise wouldn't have done. Brian and Courtney in NYC were really helpful and easy to talk to and helped make the experience really amazing!!

Non-Profit Internship

My internship was an amazing experience overall. I was working for a non-profit organization in New York for a 6 month internship. During my unpaid internship, I was actually able to extend my stay to work with the same organization for the summer in a paid role. The Intern Group were very helpful in getting me this extension. The Intern Group also offered activities every weekend, which are great for anyone who is new to the city.

The hiring team placed me with a reliable and incredibly informative internship, in which I have gained incredible working experience I couldn’t have got otherwise. I genuinely have no negative comments towards the intern group and would truly recommended
