 Previous interns have said: 

 "As an International Relations Assistant at ESIC Valencia, I was part of a supportive team and worked on a wide range of administrative tasks and creative projects. I immensely improved my Spanish skills, deepened my intercultural awareness and developed valuable transferable skills that helped me stand out in the job market and secure a full-time role shortly after graduation" (Z.T.; Hungary). 

 "I have a very positive memory about my time at ESIC. From the first day I was warmly welcomed into the team and I enjoyed the variety of tasks. During my internship I had the opportunity to meet people from all over the world and pursue my own projects to enhance ESIC’s international relations" (Y.Z.; Germany). 

 "I worked at Esic Business and Marketing School as an International Relations Assistant. It was an experience that shaped me not only from a work point of view but also in terms of personal growth. I learned how to use programs that were new to me. I was given responsibilities that I was able to manage thanks also to the advice my employer gave me. I recommend this internship to anyone who is having their first work experience and has a great desire to learn" (G.R.; Italy).
