Interview with Thomas and Sefa, interns in London


Do you want to know what people think about Come2England and the internships we found for them? You can read here the interviews and the experience of Thomas and Sefa, two French guys, who came to London for an internship experience.

Can you introduce yourself in a few words?

Thomas: My name is Thomas, I'm from Le Havre (France) and I'm a student in Normandy Business School.

Sefa: I am studying in the same business school as Thomas, we are friends and currently I am in a gap year. All my previous experiences are in finance department.

Why did you contact Come2England?

T: I was looking for an internship in London and I found them on Facebook: Travailler a Londres, I contacted them and they were really nice and professional so I was convinced by their services. They helped me to find an internship in few weeks.

S: At the beginning I have contacted Come2England on Facebook also after that I went to their office, I was really impressed with them. I decided to choose Come2England because I needed to find a good internship quickly. And they have found mine in one day!

Can you tell us more about the company where you are doing your internship?

T: We are both working for a property management company. Our tasks are to develop the professional image of this young start up (business card, logo, leaflet etc.) and to find some landlords who will let us their properties.

S: We are also in charge to find new landlords to help the company to increase. We really like it because we have to speak English and we are very independent in our work.

And what about next years? What are your plans for the future?

T: Next year I'm going back to France to complete my Master degree in Marketing.

S: In the future I would like to work in a foreign country and I really like my time here so London is my first choice at the moment!

Would you suggest Come2England to your friends?

T: Yes of course! That’s what I did with my friend Sefa who was not satisfied with the internship he found on his own.

S
: I was working in another company and the tasks weren’t what I was expecting so Thomas advised me and here I am (laugh). Definitively I would suggest Come2England to my friends if they want to find an internship quickly in London.

You did also our Business English Workshop. Would you recommend it?


T: Yes, it is interesting to know how English people are in business because it is not necessarily the same as in France. So if you want to work here, yeah you need it!

S: I suggest the Business English workshop when you arrive in London because it's very useful. And all activities are nice.

Thanks guys for this amazing interview, hope your internships are doing well. If you are also looking for an internship in London, contact us
