Our Internships in Human Resources Across The World

London Internships in Human Resources

You’ll find yourself getting acquainted with British work culture as you intern here. With plenty of working lunches and after-work drinks, you’ll have the chance to informally get to know your colleagues and learn how the Brits do it. Don’t be surprised when it’s your turn to get a round of drinks in!

New York Internships in Human Resources

Young, diverse and thriving, New York is an international hotspot for finance, media, culture – and much more besides! From fledgling small businesses to big corporations, Human Resources specialists have the chance to make their mark in any number of ways in the Big Apple; the city’s large immigrant population means that there’s always a new way of looking at things.

Seoul Internships in Human Resources

Seoul’s business culture is probably unlike anything you’ve encountered before, but you’ll learn a lot here. Deference is key in South Korean culture, and politeness will take you a long way. But South Koreans are also highly collaborative and respectful; the strategies you pick up here will give you a unique edge in your HR career.

Tokyo Internships in Human Resources

Tokyo walks a fine line between high-tech metropolis and traditional culture; as a result, any HR intern will find themselves with a great challenge to sink their teeth into. Just remember to bow instead of shaking hands – while many Japanese professionals will shake hands to accommodate you, a small gesture of respect for your host culture will go a long way.

What to Expect on an Internship in Human Resources

All human resources roles keep people at the center of all things, but that could take on any form. From the traditional role of human resources officer to the innovative role of occupational psychologist you’ll spend your time thinking about how different actions affect employees.

You might be working with an independent career coach, taking notes about how to help people work through big decisions and discover their passion or you could be working with a recruitment agency to screen candidates and find the best match for an open position.

Wherever you find yourself, you’ll gain an understanding of employee relations and learn to work well under pressure. The skills you gain will be sought after by employers worldwide and can even lead into consulting work if you decide to pursue that path, so set yourself up for success with a human resources internship!

What Do Our Interns Say About Our Internships in Human Resources?

Ryan, US

My Tokyo HR internship was absolutely fascinating. There’s something about learning a totally new style of conducting business that makes me look back on my own cultural practises in a new light. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of stepping out of their comfort zone and into something new.

Nancy, Canada

I think human resources is about how to bridge the gap between opposing sides, and I don’t think I’d have nearly as good a grasp on doing that if I hadn’t interned in London. My outsider perspective was sometimes exactly what we needed – thanks so much to Beyond Academy for making this possible!

Hugh, UK

Couldn’t speak more highly of my internship. The Beyond team were just the best and really did everything they could to make me feel at home. Any problems I had were fixed as soon as possible – 5 stars!
