Internship Positions

For over 10 years, we have placed many foreign interns in Chilean companies. During this time, we have developed a vast network of important contacts in the diverse world of Chilean business. Our professional partners that regularly receive our foreign interns range in diverse areas and characteristics: international and domestic companies, small to medium sized, private and public institutions, non-profit organizations as well as government offices. Our years of experience, professionalism and careful approach allow us to place our candidates according to their needs and expectations.

Please keep in mind that the majority of the internships in Chile are unpaid work experiences. In the long run, this opportunity proves to be more valuable than a salary! It is possible that compensation is given at the discretion of the company depending heavily on its economic and social circumstances. However, outstanding work may be rewarded by other means including lunch coupons, public transportation fares, etc.
