The Role
Roles and responsibilities are very demanding and challenging but it really fundamental to gaining a valuable experience within a friendly environment.
Everyone loved each other including the chinese staff.
Manager always willing to help with the roles and answer any questions that may come up.
As I worked part-time I usually had a very long day, but full of different tasks from blogging to writing up invoices and calling clients.
I was in full control of the spanish speaking market and help out with some extra work my manager gave me.
I also attended lessons of Chinese language which is a very unique language to learn, as well as the many verbal and written skills i learnt within the office. I would say it was amazing the amount i´ve learnt in a year
The Company
great
it wasn´t planned but it flowed very smoothly.
The company was incredible as i also had opportunities to do factory visits for quality control reports as well as work in the headquarters office.
Company Parties/Events
This could be one of the jobs i head towards after graduating as it very fun and the business is on its growth face.
The Culture
I met many interns from different places around the world
As the internship took place in china, it wasn´t that expensive to live and socialize.
Nightlife was alright, but is a different culture so and a small place like Zhuhai, there were not many big clubs.
Activities with Internchina, the agency, was varied. Many stuff to do including travelling around.
