Internships with Frontier: an opportunity to gain valuable experience and encounter fascinating new cultures
internships abroad & the uk
learn the ropes in style
These days it seems that everybody has a degree in their chosen field so you need to do whatever it takes to build work experience and achieve success. Committing to a carefully chosen internship will really set you apart from the crowd, as no matter how much preparation and theory you do nothing compares to the experience of working in your field, and at Frontier we offer you the opportunity of a range of suitable internships to do just that.
As employers look beyond the traditional indicators of suitability in their applicants and search for general as well as practical experience in the working world, Frontier will help your CV finish at the top of the pile.
What will you get from an internship?
The benefits of a Frontier internship are many, not least the all round experience of time in a working environment where your future lies. Meeting other people with similar aspirations could make you consider career angles and avenues that you might not have otherwise.
Your Frontier internship and the experience you take from it will inevitably provide you with both a broader and more in depth appreciation and understanding of the industry you are joining.
The satisfaction you will gain from spending time on your internship working towards your dream career will no doubt spur you on to even greater achievements.
Where can you go on an internship?
A wide range of internships could take you wherever you want to go, wherever you think you would get the most enjoyment and gain the most benefit and most relevant work experience. The possibilities will be closely linked to the work itself, what your motivations are and the experience you hope to gain.
Choose from internships based at home or abroad, in an office or in the field, or a combination of the two. Frontier offers a wide choice so it really depends on you and what you want to achieve!
Your internship could take you from the London HQ of an international conservation and development NGO to a rural health clinic in the heart of Africa, the national offices of a newspaper in India or a remote marine conservation project in Fiji.
What can you do on an internship?
A great aspect of your internship is that it will be largely down to you to ensure you get the best and most relevant work experience for yourself personally and your work programme will evolve as you progress and gain more experience and confidence.
If you are heading for a career in journalism then Frontier internships in Kenya, India, China and Fiji are waiting for you to get stuck into reporting, editing, researching stories and anything else you fancy, getting into the sector and experiencing the challenges faced by your future colleagues.
Notoriously dependent on experience and commitment as well as long term training and personal development, medicine is the field perfectly suited to a rewarding internship. Putting your theory into practice, developing new skills, shadowing professionals and learning from their experience in a challenging environment is sure to impress medical school selection committees. Frontier medical internships are available in places including Kenya, Fiji, Cambodia and India.
If a career in scuba diving is more to your liking then an internship could increase your experience, improve your skills and really invest in your personal development. Choose from the white sand beaches and dazzling coral reefs of Fiji, Cambodia, Tanzania and Madagascar for diving internships that will ignite the envy of most recreational scuba divers!
