Frequently Asked Questions

In which fields do you provide internships?

AIP is proud to be collaborating with over 450 partner companies representing all major industries. As such, we are very flexible in arranging your ideal internship according to your requirements and career goals.

In which fields do you provide internships? Can I see a list of companies that I can be interning at?

Unfortunately we will not be able to provide you with the list of our partner companies. The main reason is that it will provide you with false expectations of where you will be interning.

The final decision is dependent on our partners whether to offer an internship in their companies. Although we can influence them to certain extent, there are too many factors that are out of our control.

Nonetheless, we still hold true to our promise of securing a meaningful internship according to your expectations.

What happens if I am rejected after an interview or if I am not happy with the position?

AIP guarantees to arrange your ideal internship position for you, so no need to worry. We will provide you with interviews until you are accepted and the position offered suits your preferences given that you have tried your best and agrees to fully cooperate with your AIP representative.

For further clarification, please have a look at sections 3 and 4 of our Terms & Conditions.

What about the VISA process?

The visa process varies for each destination and will also be different depending on factors such as your nationality, age, and status of education. However, no matter which package you choose, AIP will assist you in applying for the correct visa and provide you with all the necessary documents to ensure a seamless application process.

Should you have concerns regarding the visa processes for your destination of choice, please feel free to state them during your interview and your interviewer will provide you with initial advice. Besides that, AIP will also confirm your eligibility for the visa in your preferred destination when accepting you into the program.

Will I have a supervisor at my company?

Yes, all of our partner companies provide a designated supervisor to make sure you gain the best possible learning experience.

My university requires certain documents to acknowledge the internship. Can AIP help me with that?

Sure, we are familiar with the regulations of universities and our partner companies are also aware of the potential processes involved. As such, we will work closely together with you and your university to make sure that your internship will satisfy the requirements.

Will I get to know other interns from the program?

Yes, we will make sure that you are connected with our other interns in your internship destination as well. AIP interns come from all over the world (over 60 nationalities and counting!), so this will be a great opportunity for you to make international friends and build a global network of people from various backgrounds.

Are there any events organized by AIP?

Yes, depending on the period and the destination of your internship, we also have occasional dinners and networking events that you will be invited to join. These events are both social and/or educational.

What happens if I have a problem with the host company or a hard time adjusting to the new environment?

Whichever package you choose, we always offer a 24/7 emergency support. This means that you can contact us night and day and we will assist you.

Is the internship paid?

While we cannot guarantee our internship to be paid, most of our companies offer a reimbursement. You have to consider that in many of the destinations we work in it is illegal to pay a salary to foreign interns hence it is on a case-to-case basis.

What happens if you can't find me an internship?

If we are unable to find you an internship within your deadline we will offer you the possibility to obtain a 50% refund of your deposit or the possibility to change the details of your placement.

Can I have a list of the companies you work with?

Because of the contracts, we have with our partners and because our list of partners is the core of our business we don’t disclose in advance the name of our partners. Rest assured as we work with many international organizations and Universities. Our programs are largely reviewed online and we pride ourselves in finding the best placements across our destinations.
