“The internship was great, it provided me with a good insight into the media industry in China and it certainly gave me a good indication with my career direction. I enjoyed the creativity and input into the editing and writing process. I also enjoyed working with interesting people from different nationalities and working in a Chinese speaking environment. Professional Pathways Australia was efficient and supportive.” (Lisa Liu – Internship in China)

“The internship program went really well, my supervisor was really nice, understanding and taught me a lot about the French language. My internship went smoothly even though I found it a bit difficult the first week, the rest of the month went so quickly because I was having a wonderful time working with them and actually enjoying what I was doing.” (Beatrice Lebon – Internship in France)
