Intern with New Zealand — From Your Room in India | Education New Zealand Virtual Internships 2025

Okay, tell me this—what if I told you that you could intern with a New Zealand company without leaving your house in India? No, this isn’t some futuristic VR setup. It’s a very real opportunity, and it’s called the Education New Zealand Virtual Internship. And trust me, if you’re an undergrad looking to level up your resume with international experience—this is the moment you've been waiting for.

Let’s break it down together.

So, what’s this internship all about?

Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (what a cool name, right?) is offering Indian undergraduate students the chance to intern with New Zealand and multinational companies. You’ll be working on actual business problems—not just sitting in on Zoom calls pretending to take notes.
 

You’ll be:

• Placed in a team of 5–6 students
• Assigned a dedicated mentor
• Given a business challenge to solve
• Working completely online over 3 weeks
   

Oh, and did I mention this is not just a typical internship? This one gives you exposure to how Kiwi companies operate, how they think, how they innovate—and yes, it’s as awesome as it sounds.

Time commitment? Manageable.

This internship only takes about 10–15 hours per week. That’s like binge-watching two K-dramas a week—but with serious career benefits.

Here’s the schedule:

• Internship dates: 7th to 25th July 2025
• Induction sessions: 23rd & 24th June
• Final presentations: 29th to 31st July
   

Why Should You Apply?

• Get a real feel for how businesses in New Zealand operate
• Learn directly from experienced mentors and receive practical training
• Strengthen your professional profile while making meaningful global connections
• Add valuable international work experience to your resume that sets you apart
   

This isn't just resume filler. It’s the kind of thing that makes admissions officers and future employers do a double take.
 

Who will you be working with?

Here are just a few of the companies that have been part of this program before:

• Danone
• IAG
• Tesla Forecast
• Signal
• Hynds Engineering
• Chartered Accountants ANZ
  … and more to be announced this year.
   

Whether you're into business, management, computer science, or tech, there’s a space for you. You’ll be placed based on your academic background.
