Our Mission : Developing Global Skills In Tomorrow's Technical Leaders

    The IAESTE Placement Service....

    With the IAESTE Placement Service, IAESTE United States uses its network of more than 80 international counterparts and annual applicant pool of 30,000 students to locate a highly qualified technical or scientific intern that meets your company's needs.  In addition, for each international intern your company hosts, one U.S. student is able to intern abroad on a reciprocal offer.

    There are three easy steps to hosting an intern.

  • >Step 1 - During the fall, you determine your company's need for an intern, including qualifications and timeframe, by completing an "Offer of Training" form.

  • >Step 2 - In January, we will exchange your offer with one of our 80+ counterparts, who will then nominate a highly qualified student candidate.

  • >Step 3 - During the spring, you accept or reject the candidate.  If you accept, IAESTE United States finalized all of the paperwork, including J-1 visa arrangements.

Fees & The Local Committee Advantage
    As a non-profit organization, IAESTE United States depends on program fees to offset the costs of administering programs.

    The per-intern fee includes health insurance, assuring that your international intern is insured for the duration of his/her program.  In addition, all interns must be paid.  On the "Offer of Training" form, yozu state the salary, which should cover living expenses; most IAESTE interns are paid between $8 and $12 per hour.
