Testimonials:

“Our Midwest location is full of really incredible professionals. They have offered me projects that bring in my personal interest and incorporate my past experiences all the while building my career skills upon it. From managing websites, creating landing pages, copywriting to creating promotional materials and social media management, I got to see it all through. The internship at GACC truly opened my eyes to where I see myself in the transatlantic professional network!”

Caroline C., Former Marketing & Communications Intern

“I loved being in an international workplace and meeting new people, especially the interns who are coming to Chicago for the first time. It was also a unique experience to work with two distinct cultures and a great learning opportunity for someone interested in cross-cultural workplaces.

In my position as the MarCom intern I had a lot of autonomy and opportunity to take responsibility for projects. I loved the community I was surrounded by along with the expertise. It’s a very nurturing environment and I gained a lot of insight and professional advice from my supervisors and surrounding staff. It’s a top-notch experience that I’m glad to have pursued!”
