One of the easiest ways to increase the global capabilities of your organization is to bring on foreign-based interns. It’s a lot easier than you may think!
As a sponsor of Global Chamber, we’re a strong supporter of there programs to help companies globalize and grow. One of their programs that helps companies in 120 countries to grow globally is their partnership with AIESEC, which helps administer the program that essentially gets you an intern from anywhere in the world, to your business anywhere in the world.
Then what you get is a talented person who brings an international perspective to your company.
One marketing example is a company that worked with AIESEC to get three interns from three regions of Costa Rica. The company was looking to expand sales there and thought that obtaining interns from those three regions would provide them built-in marketing research to properly tailor their product and approach. It worked, and it was a win-win. The company successfully launched in Costa Rica and the students gained invaluable cross-border experience.
