A degree from university is important, working experience is necessary, but more important is that you have some working experience abroad. I got known foreign culture, business styles and learned a new way of communication. That′s a big benefit for your career, but also for yourself.
Naomi Abiera
Gi2c was great, I would not have been able to survive there on my own over so the service and overall helpfulness allowed me to experience China in an unforgettable way. I learned so many invaluable things at my placement and made great lifelong friends. The insight and work ethic I gained through my time in the company will stick with me as I go about my everyday life.
Nicolas Yao
As an MBA graduate, I was looking for an opportunity in finance and investments. Gi2C placed me with a Beijing-based venture capitalist in order to understand investment opportunities and learn about the sector. In the end, my duties were not what I expected from such a position, because there was more networking and dealing with people face-to-face. This proved to be a revealing and invaluable experience, forever changing my vision of business and finance. This was the type of experience one could only live in China, and which can not exist in the Western world due to our social and cultural structure.
Jonathan Caeymaex
My experience in China helped me to understand the Chinese culture and I learned how to react in a business context. Gi2C found a internship that met my requirements. Gi2C was also helping me to find a very good accommodation in Beijing and gave to me a lot of advice to avoid problems. All these aspects were helping me to enjoy my stay in China. Moreover, when I had some administrative problems the staff of Gi2C helped me to fix the situation.
Harrison Storm Smith
I learned a lot from my experience in China. Not only did I get to meet new people from all over the world and learn about their cultures, I also learned how to communicate better. My future business goals have been extremely helped by this experience through the people I met and the networks I've created. Going to China was one of the best decisions I've made in my entire life.
Muhammad Bilal
Was a good experience for me since the GI2C help us to do the best and the flexibility that they offer. It was totally different experience even though I am living in Asia but, in Beijing are totally different. This when we experience how people are, and what they do with their live and business, which we can experience them and increase knowledge.
Zuhaib Tanweer
China is one of the leading countries in the world in many ways and it is rising in prominence in the architectural field; it is full of rich architectural history and beautiful culture, which I find very exciting and want to explore. Before coming to China, I planned to expect the unexpected when it comes to food choices.
Roberta
At the end of my internship I got a full time job offer, so the experience it was really worth. During my journey in China I met other interns and had a really good time with them.
Naomi
I have experienced a lot of the culture in the month that I was here and this part of the experience I very much enjoyed. The trips and activities organized by Gi2C were mostly the highlight of my time here, especially the Great Wall tour.
Alvise
Working here was fantastic, my company made me feel important for them, giving me even more responsibilities and letting me adapt in the best way possible; I've never felt the "cultural shock" thanks to them and I found so many kind people during this experience , making new friends and creating new work possibilities for the future.
Tamara
Beijing is such a great city, there is so much history and things to and I made a lot of friends. All of that and the bundle of great experience I will take back home made my stay here unforgettable.
