PROGRAM OVERVIEW
GUARANTEED INTERNSHIP PLACEMENTS
GlobalEd takes all the hassle out of finding an internship. Upon acceptance to a GlobalEd program we will schedule an interview with you and bombard you with questions about your skills, experience and career interests. During this interview, you'll have the opportunity to ask as many questions as you like and give us an idea of the types of skills you would like to learn moving forward. If you're not sure, that's fine. We've been doing this for over 20 years... we'll help guide you by sharing with you several internships and we have organized in the past. As we describe past experiences, companies and sectors we've worked in you can tell us what appeals to you and what doesn't. After the internship interview, we build what is called a student profile and start promoting you to local companies. When we get a company that's interested in your profile we draft up an internship offer and send it to you. An internship offer can either be accepted or rejected. If you accept an internship we secure it right then and there. If you reject it, we ask for feedback so we can improve your student profile and continue promoting you until you receive an internship offer that you accept.
WHAT IS YOUR CAREER PATH?
As a business major, imagine with going abroad and performing an internship even for just a summer term can do to your résumé and your employability. The founder of GlobalEd has more than 20 years of experience collaborating with local organizations to provide relevant and unforgettable internship experiences for international students. Whether you are studying business administration, supply chain management, finance, operations, human resources, accounting, marketing, or sales, many of the local companies we work with are eager to incorporate you onto their team.
If you are interested in pursuing a career in tourism and hospitality, Spain is a great location for you to spend your summer learning the language and performing an internship related to your academic discipline and career interests. Spain is the second most visited country in the world and the number one tourist destination for Europeans. Tourism represents roughly 12% of Spain's gross domestic product. Local companies that collaborate with GlobalEd are always eager to receive international students. Hotels, travel agencies, excursion providers, museums, event coordinators and Study Abroad organizations represent a few of the organizations that collaborate with us.

Opportunities to collaborate with start ups, midsize and even large corporations exist for students that are interested in putting their academic knowledge to the test.

As the founder of GlobalEd, I am particularly passionate about working with organizations that assist immigrants assimilate to the local culture. The students that have collaborated with us have made an impact on the lives of those in need including immigrants that have recently arrived to Spain. That said, we have an active dialogue with over half of these organizations have plenty of options to explore with you.
