Steven S. Bammel replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Phillipp - You could be right. It's just that the demand for internships by foreigners in Korea is so much higher than the supply, it doesn't seem like a good idea to put additional conditions on the companies. The internship program in…"
Philipp Grunwald replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Dear Mr. Bammel,
sorry but I don't see the connection, could you please elaborate? From what I know your "horror vision" doesn't happen in Germany and that is for the simple reason: Obligation to pay is not obligation to…"

Valentin JANIAUT replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"A bit off the topic, but I think that might valuable information for people here.
I will try to explain the difference of view between Wally, Steven and Tyler. First of all, I need to explain exactly what is an internship in Europe.…"
Tyler Joyner replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Umm well to be honest my experience is all in Finance and in the US, but as far as I know, that's how it works, yes.
Because of the short amount of time involved in an internship (usually a summer), and also because the interns often…"
Steven S. Bammel replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Really? Is that what interships really are about? I'm not sure that internships in Korea are generally considered a first step to getting hired. I'm thinking it's more about the trade-off of free/cheap work for the company for…"
Tyler Joyner replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Still, the point of an internship is to locate and develop potential future employees. I guess you could argue that giving those companies a "free trial" by way of unpaid internships might encourage them to later hire a proven…"
Steven S. Bammel replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Philipp - Are you thinking Korean company's should be obligated to pay interns?

Wally Nes replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Regarding the work-holiday visa I also doubt that it doesn't apply.

Philipp Grunwald replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Oh dear, it is always the same. First off, this is not true.
You should talk to the English Immigration hotline (number: 1345) first of all. Maybe you can go on a H-1 working holiday visa.
But then again you say in your answer that the embassy…"
Valentin JANIAUT replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"Hello Morgane,
Having done internship in Korea, and having help few of my friends with that, there is plenty of solutions, although it is quite hard to be sure it is always really legal.
Tourist Visa: Not legal, even if you are not…"
Morgane Gourvennec replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"I learned from the embassy that the work-holiday visa is not accepted for internships. Therefore I will probably ask for a C4 visa.
Thank you soo much for your help!!! :))"
Wally Nes replied to Morgane Gourvennec's discussion Visa for internship in korea"First off, this site might be useful.With the way internships are set up in the French University system I imagine there's a few threads on there relevant to your position.
From what I understand doing the tourist visa should be no…"

Hello everyone :) I need your advice...I am currently a student in a French school and I just found an internship in korea for six months for this winter.
