Program Information

Flexible internships in Australia! Intern in Australia and you get to choose the location, duration, and start date of one of the most enjoyable and rewarding internship experiences you may ever have.

While Interning in Australia, you’ll find that our internships are customized to match your interests and your desired length of stay in Australia. Internships last a minimum of 4 weeks, but we encourage you to stay as long as you can. You also get to choose where you want to intern. Do you want to live in historic Sydney or hip Melbourne?

Any length of internship in a variety of locations – From a month to a year, in Sydney or Melbourne . . . You get to decide where you will intern and for how long.

A custom internship placement – We understand that you aren’t traveling to Australia to brew coffee and make photocopies. Luckily, our internships are tailored to fit your needs: we will find you a placement that takes into account your career goals, interests, and skills.

Live the “work hard, play hard” mentality – Australians take their workday and their time off seriously. Catch an Aussie Rules Football match, hang out in a local pub, go snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, and really soak up all that Oz has to offer.
