Costa Rica Internships Experience

With the Costa Rica Internship Program, you experience a full-featured, all-inclusive live/work internship. Take advantage of our coaching and transform your resume and interviewing skills into tangible assets. With our help, you are guaranteed an internship in your field of study.

Because we take care of everything – your housing, meal plan, commute transportation and planned weekend activities – you can focus on distinguishing yourself at your internship. And while you bolster your career credentials, you also have opportunities to explore Costa Rica with new friends from a variety of US and international college interns in the program.  

You’ll forge lasting memories and friendships, as well as a web of business connections that stretch around the globe. Spend some time indulging your other interests, as well. The program offers internship with regional and local organizations in a number of prime industries, such as technology, pharmaceuticals, journalism, finance, non-profit, software development and ecotourism. The local director can find opportunities in many other areas, so be sure to ask. The official language is Spanish, so a general knowledge is important to compete for these coveted internships. It is a great place for participants to immerse themselves in the culture and language and to learn to work and live in Latin America.

Testimonials

Participating in Dream Careers is an enormous addition to your college education. It’s hard to point out just one positive point because I really loved everything about this summer.  I experienced so much!  Hands down, I had the experience of a lifetime. Dream Careers provided me with a steady yet rigorous schedule, and space to independently grow as a person.
- Shwetha Raman, Ohio State University


Dream Careers is something that has changed my life in many ways.  I have gained so much knowledge about the career I want. Not only did I gain experience, but I can put a company on my resume that I would not be able to do in my home city. Doing this program has given me confidence to achieve my career goals.

- Jenna Smialek, University of Kentucky


Dream Careers provided me the opportunity to do something I would never have the chance to do on my own; however, the investment paid off. In my last interview with a law firm, I got the position because the hiring manager was impressed that I took the initiative to move to such a large city just for an internship.

- Morgan Smith, University of South Carolina


"I feel like many students have an education but are unguided in the next step which is taking their education and applying it to find a job, their dreams and their future. Dream Careers served as that guide showing that the best way to learn is by attempting and being proactive is the only way you are going to get what you are looking for."

- Kate Daniels, University of Arizona
