From fermentation engineering to biotechnology breakthroughs, Benjamin’s 12-month internship in New Jersey helped him master the specialized skills needed to grow the industry back home in Chile. His journey proves how stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to high-level professional growth and an unforgettable international perspective.

Here's what Benjamin had to say about interning at his U.S. host company:

"Excellent company to work in, very good experience for a career in fermentation engineering, with multiple areas open to be explored and developed within biotechnology. It is a very welcoming place that has people from multiple cultural backgrounds and it is also very considerate with its employees. They also have the perfect scale to learn about pilot-scale and industrial scale fermentation engineering. It allowed me to develop techniques and skills that are key in my area of study. This are going to be necessary to allow for the development of biotechnology in my country, or to search for education and job opportunities that are highly specialized in this area."

Jinjoo and Bomin just wrapped up 12-month internships in Guam, and the impact was life-changing.

For Bomin, a culinary intern, the magic was in the immersion: "I enjoyed being able to gain a wide range of experiences by actually living and working abroad, which are things you cannot fully experience through just traveling." Plus, those daily island sea views didn't hurt!

For Jinjoo, a hospitality management intern, it was about professional transformation: "The hands-on experience and industry knowledge I gained will give me a competitive edge in my future career path." Her favorite memory? A farewell potluck sharing stories and food with her new community.

Brothers Franco and Joaquin recently traded Argentina for Nebraska to level up their careers and their English. Between mastering new skills at their electronics engineering internship and enjoying home-cooked dinners with local families, they discovered that the best part of the U.S. is the welcoming sense of community.

Franco's favorite memory:
"What I liked most about U.S. culture is how welcoming and friendly people are. I really appreciated the sense of community and how much they enjoy sharing time, experiences, and traditions together. A memorable experience I had in the U.S. was sharing mate with my American friends for the first time. It was special because mate is meant to be enjoyed together, and they were very open to learning about my culture. We spent a great time talking, laughing, and sharing traditions."

Joaquin’s takeaway:
"I learned a lot about working in a large international company, had an excellent experience working with electronic devices, and improved my English. I also met a wonderful family who started inviting me over for dinner, and we took a few trips together to explore Nebraska and Kansas. Since they are school teachers, they love talking about a wide variety of topics. Meeting them was honestly the best thing that happened to me."
