Step 2: Apply
Make sure you have reviewed our Dates and Fees information, and when you are ready, complete our online application form. Remember to upload your résumé.
Step 3: Interview
Once we’ve received your application, our program coordinators will be in touch by email to organize an interview via Skype. The interview should take around 15 minutes, during which we will get to know you – why you would like to intern abroad, your skills, language proficiency, background, and career goals. Make sure you have a clear idea of two or three industry sectors that interest you. At the end of the interview, we’ll agree on your project and expectations for the Go Abroad China (GAC) Internship Program.
Step 4: Accept
Based on your interview, our program coordinator will ensure you are a good match for our internship program. We’ll be in touch via email within two to three working days to let you know if your application has been successful. If you have been successful, we’ll email you a formal offer to join the Go Abroad China Internship Program.
Step 5: Welcome
To confirm your place, reply to our formal offer and send us your first payment of US$300 (this is for US$100 application fee and US$200* for the program deposit). Payment of your deposit means you are officially in the Go Abroad China Internship Program, and we welcome you aboard!
*If for any reason, we are unable to find a suitable placement within your three chosen industry sectors, we will refund your US$200 deposit. If you decide not to go ahead with the program for personal reasons, your deposit will not be refunded.
Step 6: Placement
Your deposit starts the placement process. Within two to three weeks of paying your deposit, our team will send you a formal proposal with potential internship positions. We will continue to look for the right opportunity until you are happy with one of our opportunities on offer. Each round of proposed positions will take two to three weeks to compile.
As soon as you accept a placement, be sure to secure it by paying the balance of your program fee (we recommend you complete payment within one week after confirmation of placement to ensure you don’t lose out).
