Is one year of paid internship acceptable for my application in Australia/Canada for a Master's?

Yes, a one-year paid internship is generally acceptable and can strengthen your master's application for Australia or Canada.

Most programs do not require work experience, but having a relevant paid internship can make your profile more competitive, especially for selective courses or universities. Some programs in fields like business or those with work-integrated learning may value or prefer applicants with practical experience.
