Business and Marketing Intern
I had the opportunity to join a 3-week internship at The Grad Soc as a Business and Marketing intern. Although it was a very short learning journey, I was able to learn so many things about business and marketing. The team was very supportive throughout my internship and even after its end. They consistently provide me with constructive feedback and assisted me in developing my portfolio. It was such a great experience, and I hope to be able to join another similar opportunity.
Forbes Internship
I highly recommend The Grad Soc to students and graduates who are seeking to gain industry experience. They are truly committed to helping you go above and beyond.
I am based in the Philippines and consider myself incredibly fortunate to have my full-year UK internship (remote) through The Grad Soc. This experience, I not only gained invaluable industry experience but also benefitted greatly from The Grad Soc's career guidance and advice.
3 Week Virtual Internship
The whole team at the Grad Soc is so professional. Lauren was especially very helpful and understanding as a supervisor. I learnt a lot in these few weeks. Though the tasks were optional I managed to complete some despite my hectic school schedule. I highly recommend The Grad Soc. Thank you to the Grad Soc Team!

Grad Soc Internships are highly recommended and the best part, they are remote!
They highly focus on practical learning to help the candidites develop a great portfolio and relevant skills that help in finding new job opportunities.
TWO internships in 8 months...
I am glad to say GradSoc helped me acquire 2 internships within 8 months and the experience I built and the skills I developed during both internships helped me land my first full-time job straight out of university! It was all down to the training and support provided by the GradSoc Team. They always made sure I was prepared and knowledgeable in all areas required prior to starting the work, which is something extremely beneficial for interns breaking into new industries or trying a role they want to grow in. I highly recommend GradSoc to anyone looking to build their network and industry experience, they will take care of you from the start and even after your internship ends with career support whenever you need it.
Must have experience!
I was new to LinkedIn and connecting with the right people was a key measure I took. Thankfully I connected with Lauren and registered for this internship at Grad Soc!
George and Shona shared tremendous insights on literally every aspect of business and marketing. This internship is literally one thing that every business graduate should take without thinking twice!!!
Fresh career perspective
I received 1:1 mentorship from Shona which was one of a kind I have ever received in over a decade. She was very accommodating , great customer service skills, helped navigating and choosing career options and offered substantial feedback and comments. I cannot recommend Gradsoc enough to anyone. They are a tiny company but going leaps and bounds with their bespoke career services. It’s not a wishy washy counselling service it’s beyond that where your needs are tailored by amazing mentors like Shona & she hits the spot and genuine help you.
Three-week Business & Marketing
Had an amazing three-week Business & Marketing internship with The Grad Soc! Explored market research, KPIs, customer funnel, SEO, and more while working with some of my favorite companies. Lauren's support and feedback were invaluable. Grateful for this enriching experience!

An excellent experience
An excellent experience, all the content provided was well coordinated and delivered. Would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in gaining some experience and knowledge.
The Grad Soc Internship Experience
I loved that each topic was delivered in bite sized videos, which made it easier to retain. I also loved the optional tasks that went hand-in-hand with each topic. Not to mention how helpful and sweet the team is!
Most amazing experience
Most amazing experience, thegradsoc has been teaching me things I haven't been taught at university. I would highly recommend them.
Amazing opportunity for first work experience and networking
The Grad Soc is an amazing platform for graduates who are looking for their first work experience out of university. The best part: it's open to everyone, anywhere in the world. The Business and Marketing internship offered me incredible insight into the field of marketing and furthered my professional growth. Keep up the good work!

Amazing people to work with and I was able to learn a lot from it. I definitely do not regret.
Amazing Internship Experience
During my internship, I was exposed to the basic concepts of marketing through recording sessions, articles/websites, and extra support from Shona and George, who have helped me to gain insights into Marketing. There were opportunities for me to practice the knowledge such as making an Instagram post, which was absolutely a great memory of my internship. I and other interns also networked and helped each other, which was very valuable as I got to know more about their degrees.
I really recommend anyone who wants to try Marketing but is not sure where to gain the experience!

TheGradSoc internship was an great experience! Not only did I learn about key lessons on branding and social media marketing, but both Shona and George gave me crucial advice about curating a profile and posting on Linkedin.
Great experience with GradSoc Team.
I've had a great experience working with Shona and George during the 12 weeks of the marketing branding internship.
Shona was very smart, insightful and empowering in her guidance and feedback on the branding side of the internship, while George was the wise guide in the dos and don't in everything resume, LinkedIn profile and how to get noticed by employers.
I've really enjoyed this experience with the GradSoc team, definitely recommend it and, I would love to work with them in the future.
My Internship Experience with The Grad Soc
I did the 2 Week Business and Marketing Internship and the 8 Week Full Stack Data Analytics Software Development Internship at The Grad Soc. I've gained valuable work experiences through technical development in a hands-on software developer project for the Analytics Internship and creating marketing campaigns to get students hired for the Business and Marketing Internship. George and Shona are very collaborative, proactive, and highly motivated individuals who know how to guide their students when they need it. These internships alongside the job hunting expertise/guidance from George and Shona are what make this whole experience unique. The Grad Soc experience is a must for any student who is looking to get their first job or a foot in the door into their relevant industry. Even if you're not here for the internship, they can provide professional guidance to your ideal career. Thank you George and Shona for showing me the ropes and allowing me to make a positive impact.
A nice tweak for your CV
I did a remote 6-week marketing internship with the GradSoc. It was a useful thing to do to bridge the time after my uni lectures had concluded and before I started writing my dissertation. I managed to deepen my marketing knowledge and gain relevant experience which facilitated getting my current job after graduating. Working with the GradSoc team was very enjoyable and an internship there can constitute a valuable tweak to every graduate's CV. I can recommend it!

Last year I completed a 6-week internship with The Grad Soc. It was the best opportunity after I graduated from university, since I felt like I was lacking motivation and inspiration to work on projects and also get started on my career journey. The Grad Soc's internship was such an eye-opener for me. I have learned a lot of things about social media, marketing and design through creating posts for social media, designing and writing content, and developing a marketing campaign within a team. I was guided with a lot of care by my mentors, Shona and George, two amazing and ispiring people, really easy to communicate with, and straight-forward when it came to really give me feedback for my work. I was really grateful for the last part, since I feel like I can't improve that well if my mentors/employers sugarcoat the feedback. In this internship I realised that there is so much room for improvement, and I am excited that I have a lot of space to grow.
Thank you so much, The Grad Soc!
