Today’s Competitive Advantage Opportunity

Submitted by alexa on Monday, February 1, 2010 - 03:44

Ever thought of getting an internship abroad? For some students, this endeavor is quite intimidating. Why? With overwhelming visa or work requirements, different language and culture to adapt to, many are daunted. Thus, golden opportunities for career growth remain futile.

Luckily, CAREER INTERNSHIP ABROAD in partnership with different USA Department of State accredited J-1 Visa Sponsoring firms, is now offering a premium support throughout the internship abroad process – helping students and young professionals grab a once-in-a-lifetime chance to a great career leap.

It provides Work and Travel, Internship, and Traineeship programs in the US for university students, recent graduates and young professionals respectively. Hence, its eligible applicants would have the privilege of world-class training, giving them competitive edge over millions of job seekers across continents.

Career Internship Abroad is an accredited member of World Youth Student Exchange (WYSE) of Netherlands.

The said US Work and Travel and internship programs are designed for qualified applicants to participate in work-based training or internship in the US for a period of three up to 18 months. This is made possible through J-1 Intern or Trainee visa of the U.S government’s Exchange Visitor Program.

The USA programs seek to improve participants’ skills, partaking in American expertise, methodologies, and techniques. These training programs are intended to increase culture and society awareness between two parties - through an interchange of ideas between participants and their American associates.

To date, a good number of positions are available for those who want to explore the benefits of getting an internship abroad. Particularly in the fields of Culinary Arts, Food & Beverage Retail Concessions, Front Desk Office, Business and Management, Hospitality Management, Mass Communication/Media Studies, Information Technology, Marketing/Sales, and Graphic Design.

Also, students and young professionals can use this experience as leverage to their future careers. Like developing multicultural communication, building international relationships with professionals, which would eventually be an attractive feature in any one’s resume.

With these advantages, Career Internship Abroad acts on the needs of its applicants by providing reliable service, high-quality placements and 24/7 assistance prior, during and after the chosen program.
