Call for applications (last call)
There is only one week left for students to apply for this year's Cross Culture Internship Program (CCIP).
Asian university students who seek to gain both practical and cultural experiences are encouraged to submit applications by Feb 25, 2011. The following is a brief guide to enrolling in the program.
1. Register a user account
2. Login and read through the instructions
3. Complete and submit the application and resume online (do not click Confirm)
4. Click PDF to generate your application and resume in PDF format
5. Send your application, resume and other required materials info@fusia.net
CCIP stresses teamwork. Before submitting the application, students are encouraged to join a peer group and/or Skype session by contacting the program's representative. They are also encouraged to send their documents to the program for comments before they officially submit their applications.
According to CCIP, as well as the applicants, the program's application process is long, tedious and time consuming. So far only 50 applicants have passed the interview out of the 130 applicants.
Over 100 students are still working hard to fine-tune their applications to meet the program's high standards and criteria.
"I was surprised to see the sheer number of documents needed, as well as the strict protocol we were supposed to follow. Undaunted, I practiced extra caution before submitting my application and was extremely taken aback to find out that I still received a list of errors to correct despite my conscientious effort. This is definitely the hardest application process I have ever encountered but looking back, I found it to be an extremely rewarding experience," said Kwek Pak Ming, a student attending National University of Singapore.
Ke (Terence) Chen, a student at the Chinese University of Hong Kong added, "I initially applied with two other friends who quit in the middle of the application process. It was stressful, but once I heard I got in yesterday, it was such a relief to be done. It was totally worth it, and I did learn a lot from the process."
CCIP is an internship program that takes place in New York City every summer in two seven-week sessions. The program is designed to strengthen the practical skills and global mindset of Asian university students, the next global generation, and bring positive influences to American firms hosting the interns.
