Our mission.
​

​The aim of our service is to partner with companies, to create rich life experiences that prepare students for the 21st century world of work.

We help students accelerate their career, activate their English and grow personally.

The idea is that the internship is mutually beneficial for both parties, with the students getting a chance to improve their English and CVs through work experience, and the companies getting an extra pair of hands. 
​

​Remote internships.
​

​Our virtual internship programme allows students to gain experience in an English-speaking company by interning remotely from anywhere in the world.

Doing an online internship also allows students to gain valuable remote working experience, developing skills that are in increasing demand.

150 hours in total, the programme is part time, with students committing to 10, 15 or 20 hours per week. 
​

Our students. 
​

Our interns come from some of the top universities and colleges from across the world including: University of Cambridge, Queen Mary University of London, University of Leeds, University of Nottingham, University of Reading, BPP University, Regents University London, University of Amsterdam, Delft University of Technology, INSEEC among many others.

With a track record of over 15 years, Professionals UK provides a personal service to companies and students and aims to match the right student to the right company.

All our students are carefully vetted and have a pre-screening interview with an experienced Placement Officer before we approach companies.

Professionals Global provide training at the start of the internship including practical tips and support for identifying their career goals, effective remote working, writing in English and online marketing tools. They will also receive coaching during the internship to ensure that they get the most from the opportunity.  
​

How our interns can help you grow. 
​

Our students are highly motivated and bring a “can do” attitude. They also:

1. Provide an extra pair if hands for our online marketing
2. Bring their knowledge and experience of being part of the social media generation
3. Help with research projects investigating new products, services and markets
4. Bring their knowledge of their local market 

​

Remote working tools.

​Remote working tools are in growing demand and we are looking for companies to offer interns an opportunity to get to grips with using some of these tools in a professional context. Communication and project management tools that managers have used include:

Marketing experience. 
​

​Online tools are constantly evolving and changing but allow students to practice a ‘Growth mindset’ and an ability to learn fast. Tools that students would benefit from using in a business context include:

 Your responsibility as a host company. 
​

​Companies need to provide the following:

1. A variety of real-life tasks relevant to the student’s studies and interests
2. Practical experience of using industry communication and project management tools to help students develop strong remote working skills
3. Practical experience of using digital marketing tools to help students gain confidence in using social media and digital tools in a business context
4. A mentor who will meet with the intern (at least) weekly to agree objectives and monitor how the internship is going
5. An opportunity for students to practice their English skills
6. A reference at the end on headed paper and a LinkedIn testimonial

​

How the programme works. 
​

We work closely with companies to understand their business and culture to match the right intern. After this:

1. You receive 1 or a selection of CVs
2. If you are interested, we arrange an interview with a potential candidate
3. You offer a placement if the student is suitable
4. Professionals UK monitors the placement and is on hand to answer questions and issues a student certificate at the end
5. You provide the student with a reference and LinkedIn testimonial at the end

 What companies say. 
​

We consistently get great feedback from companies about our students:  

“ Greta had a great level of enthusiasm, and many of the colleagues in the office commented on her amazing level of keenness.  Her level of English was phenomenal - if Greta was staying in the UK I would be offering her a job. She was a fantastic fit for our company and we really enjoyed having her here working with us. She was extremely capable and surpassed our expectations.”
Carrie Morgan, The Sales Way Ltd, Manchester
 
“We are very happy with Victor - he has quickly become a part of the team, and we will start some interesting projects this week and he will be in charge of them.”
Sergio Ardu, La Tua Pasta, London
