v INTERN PLACEMENT SERVICES v San Jose, Costa Rica
Business oriented internships abroad are one of the surest ways to make
your Resume stand out. Adelante has been placing candidates abroad for over
10 years. Our success over the years is proven and has helped many
candidates live and learn about business abroad.
Based on candidate requests from the
United States and other countries, we launched into Latin America, first Mexico and
Costa Rica, then now, with huge success, into Chile and Uruguay. Again, we are
providing good, solid real-life work and internship & culture programs for reasonable fees and
pretty much all-inclusive (except for airfare, as always that is your
responsibility).
We are using our years of experience sending internship candidates abroad to
develop and continually enhance the same valuable and customized Internship
program in Costa Rica. This includes amazing excursions and activities not
available in any other country we operate in.

IMPORTANTE!: There are several differences in terms of things included -- please note these differences! For example: Most meals are included in the Costa Rica programs, and you have an Independent Living option not available in Spain.
- The amount of time you choose to intern is flexible, with program lengths ranging from 2 to 12 months
- 3 weeks of intensive Spanish language classes at a University are included in the fee. Transcripts available. 9 different levels of courses to ensure that even really advanced or very beginner candidates are taken care of
- Lodging and meals are included. (BEWARE other programs that seem to have
lower prices but do not include housing or even worse, programs whereby you
don't know where you are going to be living until after you arrive!)
- Independent Living Option: you live in Adelante-provided housing for
month 1, and then you can choose to live on your own in an apartment. We will
assist you with this process in-country. Inquire about price difference.
