There are many reasons for doing an internship in another country. First of all, the experience you get when you do an internship in the professional field you realize the internship, but also, the personal experience of living in another country with different ways of living and thinking.

On the other hand, language is another of the benefits, as long as you experience a country with a language other than your mother tongue.

Travel and meet new people, improve your ability to adapt, facing a new context completely, and of course, differentiate yourself from others, which is achieved by doing internships in the field where you want to develop professionally.

The European Union has several job search platforms, where you can find Jobs that meet your needs. Here is a list of the most important web platforms for job search:
