About interning here:
Interning with us means taking ownership of your projects, having a voice in our decisions and processes,
and learning by doing rather than observing. Our interns are given career-level responsibility and treated
as important members of the team, so to be successful here you have to thrive on a challenge, be eager
to show us what you can do, and be dedicated to your own professional development. We provide
projects that give you an opportunity to accomplish amazing things and the coaching you need to take
your career to the next level.

We will encourage you to analyze the effectiveness of your work and help you understand your results. In addition to working on your assigned project, you will set professional development goals and personal learning objectives. We coach our interns on resume and cover letter creation, informational interviewing skills, career exploration, and more.
Here is what some previous interns have had to say about working at Ultralingua:
“This was a world away from my other internship experience because I was given the opportunity to be independent and show that I am able to do something without the immediate help of a superior. I am really excited to bring my samples from this internship with me out into the [workplace] because I am proud of what I have accomplished. Thank you for this opportunity!”
“I enjoyed the independence that was given to me… I can't remember a time this summer that I was bored or was searching for something to do. I really appreciate the confidence that was given to me by my superiors, I think it will better prepare me for the ‘real world’ of work.”
