Description: Interning in Germany give you much-desired international experience while perfecting your German skills. In an ever more globalizing world, work experience in other cultures and knowledge of foreign languages will be more and more essential for your career. Berlin has experienced dramatic changes in the last 20 years and has become the most progressive city in Germany; always changing, always evolving, with every neighborhood a distinct atmosphere and a place for everybody. It is said that due to its history and central location in the new Europe (including the new member states) Berlin will become one of the most important cities in Europe in the near future.

Customized internships are designed specifically for you and will match your education and work experience. We can arrange internships for you in almost any professional area, for example: Marketing, Banking, Insurance, Travel and Tourism, Graphics and Design, Social Services, Political Organizations and Communication Technologies. Other fields are possible on request. Your application will be supported by a motivation letter which will help us place you in an organization where you can acquire experience relevant to your interests. Acceptance into a company is contingent upon a personal interview which you will have while you are taking your language classes.

Highlights: Germany is an historical yet modern country, split into sharply defined regions. Each region maintains its distinctive character with its own dialect, traditional dress and foods. North Germany has old seafaring ports, the West takes care of business, the East offers architecture and culture and in the South you find the Black Forest and those fun-loving Bavarians. Along the Rhine and Mosel Rivers are picturesque castles and steep, terraced vineyards. From Frankfurt to Bremen runs a trail of villages that helped inspire the Grimm Brother's fairy tales.

According to some, Berlin will soon be the new Paris of Europe. If Paris will ever be rivaled remains to be seen, but the fact that Berlin is a city that is rapidly becoming a cultural hot spot is undeniable. What better way to be a part of this dynamic city that constantly reinvents itself than to work here? We can organize internships in Marketing, Banking, Insurance, Travel and Tourism, Graphic Design, Social Services, Political Organizations and Communication Technologies. An interview with the prospective company is part of the placement process. This interview will take place while you are taking your German course.

Each quarter in Berlin has its sights and distinct atmosphere. Take your time to explore them all!
