Internships
If you want to make a change in your career, then an
internship is a solid way to help you bridge the gap.
Put your newly acquired skills into practice and get
invaluable insight into a new geography or industry.
An essential part of your degree
Internships provide a game-changing
opportunity to get on-the-ground job
experience and skilling in a new work
setting. Beyond loading your resume with
new capabilities, you have the opportunity
to demonstrate international work
experience in your new career, build a
network of work-related relationships,
and, in many cases, land a permanent job
by impressing your employer.
Doing an internship is essential for anyone
looking to make a major post-graduation
change in work or location. Internships
accelerate your path to market and are
often the “make or break” factor in landing
an international job.
You can choose to take an approved
internship in place of an elective. Your
Career Development team will help you
network and prepare for your internship.
Note: Internship eligibility is dependent on campus-specific visa rules.
STUDENT PROFILE
Luis Arreola
Mexican
Insurance Broker,
Lockton
Companies
Class of 2018
What’s your story?
While I was still at Hult London, I did
an internship at an insurance brokers
and by graduation I had three
sponsorship opportunities. I chose
Lockton because it’s an American
multinational and in the top ten
insurance companies globally, which
means more opportunities and big
international deals.
Tips for interning in London?
Be courageous and open. Attend as
many campus events as you can—
take all the opportunities to practice
your networking and pitching.
I already knew some client associates
in London, so I built on that.
