FAQ

Questions from host companies

Can't find your answer? Talk to our team.

Is it really free to host an AIP intern?

Yes. AIP doesn't charge host companies. Interns pay for their program, and that covers finding and screening candidates and looking after the intern on the ground. What we ask of you is a structured internship with real tasks and a named supervisor.

Can we pay a stipend?

Yes, and we encourage it. A stipend, transport or meals help your intern settle in and show that you value their work. The rules for paying foreign interns differ by country, so we'll tell you what works in yours.

How long do internships last?

From 6 to 24 weeks, starting any time of year. Tell us how long you need someone, and we'll look for candidates who can stay that long.

How many interns can we host?

As many as you have real roles for. Many companies start with one or two interns and add more once the first placement has gone well.

Do interns need to speak the local language?

No. Host companies work in English, and every intern we send you speaks it well.

What if it doesn't work out?

We check in with you and the intern about every two weeks. If something isn't working, tell us. Our team will step in and sort it out with both of you.
