The interns’ project has been created for us to be more courageous and to take more responsibility.”

During their journey at InterNations, interns have the chance to take part in at least one interns’ project and make an impact on the company. Being an intern myself, I have been working on a charity program recently, and I would like to tell you in more depth what the interns’ project in general — and our most recent one in particular — is all about.

Behind the Scenes: The InterNations Cities across Europe

· by

The company behind InterNations, the world’s biggest global expat community, is sometimes mistaken for a US American business or even for a multinational corporation with a branch office in every country. While the latter might be an aspirational goal to strive for, we’re not quite there yet.

On our website and our app, we do feature 420 online communities around the world. In most of these cities, we also offer our members the opportunity to meet in person, thanks to our InterNations Ambassadors and Consuls. As the face of InterNations on a local level, these particular members dedicate their time on a voluntary basis, organizing official events and activities to bring expats and global minds from Abu Dhabi to Zurich together.

In fact, InterNations — the company, not the community — was originally “made in Germany”, and most employees are still based there. However, we now have offices in four European cities. Find out more about the InterNations locations here!
