Internships at international organizations are also a great way to get a feel for the actual work place and organizational culture. Work experience is often a key factor in the recruitment process for international organizations, and many students begin working for the United Nations after having worked for NGOs or private companies. Sophia University also supports internships at international organizations and participation in UN volunteer programs.
