Below are some comments from Harun about why he chose Sydney in Australia for his internship.

What are you most looking forward to in Australia?

I’d like to learn more about the Australian culture and the working world in Australia.

What do you hope to achieve/ learn on your internship?

I want to succeed in my internship in order to learn the most about the working way abroad. Moreover, the opportunity to show my experience from Europe and perhaps learn new language or methodology.

What do you think this internship/ placement will add to your CV?

It will add the fact that I can work in an International environment and will justify my capacity to speak and work in English.

Why are you travelling to Australia for your internship?

From Europe, Australia is considered as a paradise. In addition, it is a native English speaker country which affords me the possibility to practice my English.

How jealous do you think your friends are going to be?

Due to their budget or marital status, it is not possible for them to travel in Australia. Although they miss me, they are not too jealous.
