In-Country Inclusions
Each of our programs is slightly different so inclusions also differ slightly. However, here is an outline of everything you can expect included in an in-country program, from the moment you touch down, on top of all the support you get before you go:
24/7 Support
Someone is always there when you need them and we make sure you keep their number on speed dial.
Check-ins
We won’t smother you but we will make sure you are getting along ok during your experience. You can always call us if you need us too.
Accommodation
We usually stay in a kost, a common form of accommodation in Jakarta, which is a private room with ensuite and with shared facilities, similar to student accommodation. All accommodation has security.
Local Buddies
We link you with a buddy from a local university who helps you settle in and learn all the local secrets.
Airport Pickup
One of our team or your buddy from our uni partner will meet you at the airport.
Essentials
You get lots of information and essentials on arrival, including a local sim card, map, important contacts and more.
Orientation
Meet the team, sample some cuisine and receive important information about security, health, your internship, local culture, getting around, extracurricular activities and more.
Internship
Our hosts value our interns, which is why they keep hosting! We know each organisation gives interesting, useful work to their interns, which is why we keep working with them. We also accompany you to work on your first day and keep checking in with you throughout your internship in case any issues arise.
Networking Events
We invite you to lots of networking events outside of work hours.
Special Presentations
The II team organises special presentations by experts in a range of fields – you can let us know if there’s something special you want to hear about.
Weekend Trips
A range of great weekend trips outside the city are included and your buddy can come too.
Capacity Building
Want to work on your public-speaking, professional writing or interview skills? We hold free workshops to get you on the way to job-application success.
Career Mentoring
Turn your academic pursuits into a career: We’re available to talk through all the options, queries and career worries you have and give you our insights.
Language Classes
We make it easy to learn the language in a way that suits you.
Social Events
Whether it’s a group of interns, a sports team or a drawing class, you will always be able to have fun and meet people.
