I knew I wanted to do my internship in the field of Human\nResources and preferable I would like to stay under the sun in Spain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I came across a company called Spain Internship, they help\nstudents from across the globe to find an internship mainly from Spain (however,\nthey had open vacancies in Italy, Netherlands, UK as well as recruitment\nservices in the US and Ireland). I decided to make an application on their\nwebsite to look for an internship in HR. The whole process moved forward were\nquickly. The next day from my application I received an email that they would\nlike to interview me to see to which positions I might fit before they would\nsend my application to any company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To my surprise their Customer relationship manager contacted\nme and offered me a position in their office! At this time, I was on vacation\nin Morocco and after a short consideration, I took the position. So, this is\nhow a became a HR and Marketing assistant for 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When my placement started, I was very overwhelmed with the amount\nand variety of tasks given to me. However, very quickly I started to get the hang\nof it. My tasks included helping those students who had just applied for an\ninternship, interviewing them and ensuring they had all the required paperwork\nin order. I also assisted a project manager in looking for candidates for open\npositions through contacting students, universities and posting to our website\nand social media. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The time went by quickly and soon my internship was coming\nto an end. Before I started to think about my next move, I was asked to stay in\nthe company after my internship. Now I am working at Spain Internship as a Customer\nRelationship Manager. This means that now I am training the new HR and\nMarketing interns and giving the task to the same project managers I used to\nassist. This has just shown me that you never know what life has to offer. What\nstarted as a casual search to see what opportunities were out there, has brought\nme to this day in a job that I love in Spain. Which honestly, living in Spain\nhas always been a goal of mine.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the spring 2018 I was finishing my study exchange in Alicante, Spain and I knew my next step towards graduation would be a practical training.
