Remote interns get the added benefit of improving communication skills, as you’ll be regularly liaising with people in Spain via email and online conferences. Virtual interns maintain regular contact with their supervisor via online meetings and emails, receiving updates and feedback on your internship tasks. You’ll contribute according to an agreed schedule that works for you. However, there will be times when you need to be available for meetings during office hours in Spain. Therefore, you should compare the time-zone in Spain to your own and ensure you’ll have the flexibility to do this.

This internship is conducted in English, or in Spanish by agreement with your internship supervisor. Online Spanish language lessons can be arranged in conjunction with your remote internship if you’d like to further develop your language skills.

In all cases, interns should expect that the initial phase of their remote internship will focus on gaining some introductory knowledge. You may start by gaining an understanding or overview of what you can build upon, develop, learn, and contribute. Ensure that you ask questions and provide feedback during the introductory period, so that your supervisor understands how you’re progressing. This will help them to better understand important details, such as how quickly you learn, what you find challenging, what you find interesting, etc.

Understand and expect that individual internship experiences vary. Therefore, if you’re at a more introductory level, you should reasonably expect a more introductory internship. Likewise, if you’re interning for a shorter duration, you will have a different experience from someone who is interning for a longer duration. Placement preferences are considered but always subject to availability.
