PLAN YOUR TRIP
Why is Mentor Abroad's Role Important?
Compare choosing an internship abroad to choosing a photographer for your wedding. You may choose one of your friends to take the pictures at your wedding and they will probably be very nice, cheaper than if you hired someone, knows all your friends and you may take as many pictures as you want.
But remember, the wedding is only one and maybe on that day, your friend's camera stops working and of course he doesn't have a back up one. The pictures may also come out blurry for some odd reason that your friend can't even explain.

You are not going to get married again for your friend to come back and re-take pictures. Because of all these risks, you are very well off hiring an experienced professional. Someone who takes pictures all the time, has back up cameras, has staff for emergencies and has lived through many different problematic moments. This way, the probability of the pictures coming out bad are much lower.
Your Internship Abroad is just the same. You don't travel abroad every year to intern. You can choose to contact a local company abroad directly and organize your internship placement yourself but there is a chance that you are don't going to like the company you have contacted once you are there, the company might have decided to take a vacation at the same time you arrive or they may change their minds at the last minute about having you. You are not going to travel abroad again and take so much time off again for you to be able to find a better experience.
Because of all these risks, you are very well off hiring an experienced professional like Mentor Abroad. Someone who can find you a new placement if you are not satisfied with the company where you are at, provides you with an alternative if the company decided to close and guarantees you a placement with a company by making an agreement with the host company before you arrive. Maybe it will cost you more in the short term but if you balance it out through the years, it is worth it.
