An internship overseas is the one of the best experiences a student can have, both personally
and professionally, before entering the workforce.
Getting to know another culture, learning a language, and negotiating daily life in a new country help broaden your horizons and boost your resume. And when looking for a job or applying for a post-graduate degree, it’s an added benefit to show that you’ve spent time in a foreign country not only as a tourist, but also for professional or academic purposes. Internship positions are available at national and multinational corporations, large and small organizations, public and private institutions, nonprofit foundations, and governmental entities. They range from a minimum of two months to up to six months in duration, with an average length of three months.
In addition to providing employment experience, an internship with BridgeChile allows you to develop your Spanish skills, both on the job and inside the classroom. Our internship programs include effective, conversation-based classes at our language school, where you’ll improve your Spanish in record time. Spanish classes can be taken for one month or more at the beginning of your internship, or you can choose to integrate them throughout the duration of the internship for the maximum learning experience.

Why Chile?
An internship in Chile provides much more than work experience and language development. Chile is considered one of the safest and most economically and politically stable countries in Latin America, and provides an excellent backdrop for a foray into the professional world. With the increasing development of various markets, rapidly growing international business interests, and a strong presence of locally owned companies, Chile offers students plenty of opportunities to gain professional background in different fields. In an increasingly global world, having internship experience in a Spanish-speaking country like Chile can help a young professional significantly stand out from his/her competitors in the job application process. Add to that a friendly populace, a bustling cosmopolitan capital, and natural wonders to spare, and it’s not hard to see what makes Chile an ideal internship destination. |
