IGS placed me with a personal injury attorney in Austin, Texas for two months. The best part was the high level of responsibility I was given. I attended hearings; sat in on client mettings; conducted research. This experience is a shining star for my resume. I now know what it takes to become a lawyer
“I completed business law internship under IGS with firm in Chicago. I had a great experience and the staff was top notch. The research I performed for the firm was used in several important cases. It was rewarding seeing my hard work used in the real world.”
"Doing a remote internship for a community newspaper in Sydney, Australia was the best of both worlds. I was able to explore the city and interview a number of great informants about the art and culture scene in the city. My hard work resulted in my articles being published in print and on the website. Can't thank IGS enough!"
"IGS set me up with a top stock trader in the Bay Area. As a virtual intern, I worked one-on-one with the owner of the brokerage firm and conducted market analysis and researched how top companies adjust their market strategies in times of COVID. My work resulted in real-life trading decisions."
"IGS found me a great condo in Waikiki to complete my virtual internship. I login daily to connect with the marketing team for a Hawaii-based company that launched a new phone app to help businesses screen customers for COVID symptoms. This is a wonderful balance between sun and fun and gaining business experience."
The Institute for Global Studies confirmed me at one of the top intellectual property law firms in Paris, France. I really enjoyed using a foreign language in the workplace and being a part of all-female staff. There were moments of high stress, but also high rewards. This is the first big step on my path to becoming a lawyer.
Interning in Los Angeles was everything I hoped for. IGS found me the perfect placement for me with a probate attorney. Sitting in on court sessions was eye-opening. The firm treated me with respect and allowed me to focus on the topics that were most interesting to me.
